Abortion
Pill

A medical/chemical abortion procedure uses two drugs to terminate a pregnancy. The first medication ends the pregnancy by blocking the hormone progesterone. This causes the fetal heart to stop and the pregnancy to detach from the uterine lining.

Unexpected

Pregnancy?

Abortion is a serious medical decision. Maybe you never imagined you would be facing a decision like this. All the complicated emotions you’re feeling right now are valid. Educating yourself and having all your questions answered is an important step.

Knowledge is empowering and allows you to make an informed decision about your unplanned pregnancy confidently.

The following information will be helpful if you’re considering abortion.

FAQs

Do I need an appointment?

Walk-ins are welcome; however, it is best to make an appointment to minimize your office wait time, please call 570.424.1113 or text 570-213-9340, or schedule an appointment online.

Our professional medical-grade lab quality pregnancy test can determine pregnancy the first day after your first missed period. We recommend you make an appointment if you have missed a period, have any pregnancy related questions, or think you might be pregnant.

After completing paperwork, you will meet with our medical professionals to go over your information and a pregnancy test will be administered. With a positive pregnancy test result, we will then confirm a living, intrauterine pregnancy via an ultrasound.

All our services are provided free of charge.

All you need is photo ID. If receiving a pregnancy test or limited ultrasound you will need to drink plenty of water to ensure you have a full bladder.

Absolutely, you can bring your boyfriend, family member or friend. We will talk with you privately first. Then provided you have given us consent to have them in the room, your guest will be able to join you.

We adhere to a strict privacy and confidentiality policy. Clients will be protected from disclosure of information that violates their right to privacy except where required by law, required for public health reasons, required to avert a threat of harm to the client or a third person, or when other circumstances may reasonably warrant such use or disclosure without prior authorization (e.g., abuse reporting, suicide/homicide prevention, etc.)

Abortion Pill In-Depth

The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the abortion pill through 70 days (10 weeks) of pregnancy. A medical/chemical abortion procedure uses two drugs to terminate a pregnancy. The first medication ends the pregnancy by blocking the hormone progesterone. This causes the fetal heart to stop and the pregnancy to detach from the uterine lining. Up to 48 hours later, the second medication is taken, which causes strong uterine cramping to expel the embryo/fetus and pregnancy tissue. 

Before Taking The Abortion Pill

We recommend scheduling a pregnancy screening and ultrasound appointment for your health and safety.

A pregnancy screening appointment is critical because it reduces risk to your health and equips you with information unique to you and your pregnancy so you can make a fully informed decision.

A pregnancy screening appointment includes time with our licensed medical staff, a medical-grade pregnancy test, a limited obstetrical ultrasound, and STI/STD testing. The four essential purposes for this appointment are:

  1. Confirming that you have a viable pregnancy.
  2. Determining gestational age and available options.
  3. Testing to be sure you don’t have an STI (sexually transmitted infection).
  4. Supporting you and answering all of your questions.

To protect your emotional, psychological, and physical health, before proceeding with an abortion it is important to have all the information mentioned above.

Side Effects and Risks

The most common side effects of a surgical abortion include:

  • Bleeding and passing blood clots
  • Intense cramping
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Feeling faint/sweating

Complications of a surgical abortion include:

  • Severe infection
  • Damage to the cervix or uterus
  • Excessive bleeding

Unplanned Pregnancy Options

If you are considering abortion, there are a few abortion types available, including surgical abortions and medication (or the abortion pill). The cost of an abortion and the availability of each will depend on how far along you are in your pregnancy. Our team will help you to understand the facts about your abortion options, abortion side effects, and abortion risks.

While Corbella Clinic does not perform or refer women for elective abortions, we are here to provide the judgment-free care you need so you can make the best decision possible for you. We do offer a free pre-abortion screening for women who are considering this option.

If you want to continue with the pregnancy, but don’t feel ready to be a parent, there are several paths to consider through adoption. We will walk you through these options and help you understand what is involved and what to expect. We can also help to connect you with a reputable adoption agency to help you through the process.
Although parenting may not have been your plan at this time in your life, it is possible, and many women choose this route. Whether single or with the help of a partner, friends, or family, we’re here to support in many ways with resources, classes, and services to help you be successful. This is a big decision, but you’re not alone!

Abortion Types

There are two types of abortion procedures: medical/chemical abortion and surgical abortion. The type of procedure women undergo depends on how far along they are in their pregnancy, health status, and ability to access emergency/follow-up care.

A surgical abortion is a medical procedure that ends your pregnancy. If a woman is more than 10 weeks into her pregnancy and is not eligible for the abortion pill, or in the event of a medication abortion failure, a surgical abortion may have to be performed.

Suction/Aspiration Abortion
This is the most common type of surgical abortion procedure and it can be performed up to 14 weeks LMP. During this procedure, a local anesthetic is given with possible IV sedation. The cervix is then stretched open with dilating rods. A suction catheter is inserted into the uterus to suction out the amniotic fluid and the baby. A curette (scraping instrument) may be used to scrape out any remaining fetal parts and placenta.
 
Dilation & Evacuation
This surgical abortion procedure is used from 15 weeks to 22 weeks, 6 days’ LMP, and a local anesthetic is given with possible IV sedation or general anesthesia. After viability (23 weeks and up) the procedure takes 2-3 days to complete and a local anesthetic given with possible IV sedation or general anesthesia is used. Our medical professionals will help you understand the entire procedure for both time frames.
The abortion pill is FDA-approved up to 10 weeks after your last menstrual period (LMP). It consists of two different medications that you take 24-48 hours apart. The first medication taken causes the death of the baby, and the second medication causes your uterus to contract so that the contents of the uterus are expelled. Before taking the abortion pill, it is very important for your health and safety to first have an ultrasound. There is no cost to you for ultrasounds at Corbella Clinic. We can confirm your pregnancy through an ultrasound to verify how far along you are, the location of your pregnancy (in the uterus vs. ectopic), and the viability of your pregnancy. Our medical team can answer your questions regarding the different abortion procedures so you can make a fully informed choice.

What are the Most Common Early Signs of Pregnancy?

Early pregnancy is marked by significant changes in your body as it adjusts and prepares to nurture a new, growing baby. Hormonal fluctuations caused by pregnancy hormones like hCG are the main culprits behind the common symptoms experienced during pregnancy. These hormones directly impact the way your body functions, resulting in physical and emotional changes.

The most common early symptoms of pregnancy often include:
  • Missed period (amenorrhea)
  • Tender or swollen breasts
  • Nausea with or without vomiting 
  • Increased urination
  • Fatigue
  • Moodiness
  • Bloating
  • Light spotting
  • Mild cramping
  • Constipation
  • Food aversions
  • Nasal congestion
