Abortion Methods: Understanding Different Procedures

Explore medical and surgical abortion methods tailored to different gestational ages. Get compassionate support from the Orlando Women's Center.

Abortion methods vary depending on factors such as pregnancy duration and individual circumstances. Two primary types include medical (chemical) abortion and surgical abortion, each tailored to suit different gestational ages.

1. Medical Abortion: This involves medication to terminate early pregnancies. It typically involves taking two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol, which induce miscarriage and cause the uterus to expel the pregnancy tissue. Orlando Women's Center can provide guidance and support for those considering this option.

2. Surgical Abortion: Surgical methods are performed in clinics or hospitals and are generally used for later-term pregnancies.

a. Vacuum Aspiration: Used for pregnancies up to 13 weeks, gentle suction removes uterine contents. Orlando Women's Center offers both manual and electric vacuum aspiration procedures.
b. Dilation and Evacuation (D&E): Performed after 13 weeks, this method uses instruments and suction to remove the pregnancy tissue. It's typically done in a hospital or clinic setting.
c. Dilation and Extraction (D&X): Also known as partial-birth abortion, this surgical procedure is performed after 18 weeks. It's used for second and third-trimester abortions or in cases of fetal abnormalities or maternal health risks.
