We want to provide you with all the information you need regarding abortion. Sometimes women may feel they need to make this decision quickly to get out of a tough pregnancy situation, but as with any medical procedure, it is best to make sure you know all the ins and outs for your own safety and protection. Our Abortion Education covers more, but here are some basics on abortion. Abortion is a procedure that results in the voluntary termination of a pregnancy, either medically or surgically. There are risks associated with any medical procedure. All abortion procedures require an ultrasound to determine pregnancy and gestational age. We provide ultrasounds at no charge.
