There are two types of abortion treatment that we offer:
- Medical abortion
- Surgical abortion
The abortion option you choose will depend on how many weeks the pregnancy is, your budget, and your personal choice.
Medical abortion also known as the abortion pill
The abortion pill involves two medicine that ends the pregnancy. Mifepristone is the medical term for the abortion pill. Progesterone is blocked in order for it to function. The uterine lining degrades in the absence of progesterone, ending the pregnancy.
After mifepristone pill, is followed by another medicine called misoprostol. This medication makes the womb contract, causing cramping and bleeding which is to having a miscarriage.
