Understanding Second Trimester Abortion Procedures

Second trimester abortion, sometimes referred to as 2nd Trimester Abortion, typically covers the period from 18 to 25 weeks of pregnancy. At VAG Clinic, our primary method for this stage is dilation and evacuation (D&E), a procedure recognized for its safety and effectiveness. The process is completed over one or two visits, depending on your gestational age and individual health needs.

When you arrive at our Albuquerque clinic from Grand Prairie, TX, our caring staff will greet you and guide you through every step. Here’s what you can anticipate:
