About Us

FAQS

Have questions? Our frequently asked questions provide helpful information about our services, what to expect, and how we support your care.

Yes. Even minor complications are very rare, and our doctors are gynecologists who have decades of experience specializing in abortion care.

You could become pregnant again, right away. Abortion generally does not affect fertility. You should consider the day of your abortion as the first day of your period—ovulation normally occurs about 14 days later.

General anesthesia is the best choice if you do not want to feel, hear, or remember anything during the procedure. The procedure lasts a few minutes.

Alternatively, Local anesthesia involves administering lidocaine into the cervix which offers some numbing. You will be fully conscious during the procedure. You can drive yourself.

Please note that general anesthesia is available only in the Rockville and Baltimore offices.

No. We will perform all required tests and gather all necessary information during your visit.

This is a personal decision. The pill must be done early in pregnancy—up to 10 weeks (70 days) from the first day of your last period. The pill option is more involved (than an in-clinic procedure) and requires a follow-up visit. By contrast, an in-clinic abortion is more efficient than a pill. Everything is usually completed in one visit, while follow-up visits are optional.

If under local anesthesia, you should expect moderate to strong cramping—similar to a bad period—during and immediately after the abortion. General anesthesia will ensure that you are fully asleep during the abortion; you will feel light cramping when you awaken. General anesthesia is only available in the Rockville and Baltimore facilities.

If you choose an abortion by pill, you should expect moderate to strong cramping after taking the medication at home.

Your appointment and all information about your health history and visit will be protected and kept completely confidential. We will not confirm your appointment by phone or email, other than to respond directly to an initial scheduling request. We will not release any information concerning you or your appointment without your permission. For ultimate privacy, you may also choose our Private VIP appointment option.
