Once your doctor checks you in, you will have your own private examination room, which you can stay in until you leave the office. We will assign you a nurse that will be with you throughout the entire procedure. At our offices, we administer a pregnancy test and a state of the art trans-vaginal ultrasound to confirm your date of pregnancy. You will then have a discussion with a Certified OB/GYN who will counsel you regarding different treatment options for a termination of pregnancy and different methods of pain control.
If you choose an abortion you have the option to minimize your discomfort. Your Certified OB/GYN will offer you a local anesthetic “numbing” blocks or “twilight/light” sedation. Your Certified OB/GYN will then insert a thin tube into the natural opening of the cervix. Attached to the thin tube is a handheld device, which provides a mild suction pressure. After 2-3 minutes the doctor removes the handheld device and the procedure is over. A second sonogram is then performed to double check that the procedure was successful. Once the abortion is confirmed you will lay down for several minutes, relax, enjoy a snack/beverage and then you can go home to resume your normal activities. This procedure is considered to be extremely simple and mild. You can expect a total office appointment time of 1-1.5 hours. We welcome and encourage you to bring parents, spouses, or companions.
If you choose to terminate the pregnancy with an Abortion Pill, the doctor will provide you with two sets of pills. The first pill is taken in our medical office or in the privacy of your own home. It works by blocking progesterone, which is necessary to sustain a pregnancy. By blocking the hormone, the lining of the uterus breaks down which induces a miscarriage. The second set of two pills, Misoprostol, are taken at home, 48 hours later. Misoprostol tablets cause the uterus to contract and evacuate the pregnancy naturally. A follow-up visit, to occur a week later, will include a second trans-vaginal sonogram to confirm the method was successful.Visit our abortion clinic in Pretoria
