Understanding the 3rd Trimester Abortion Process

VAG Clinic provides induction abortion care between 26 and 34 weeks, sometimes known as late term abortion or third trimester abortion. The process is carefully designed to maximize safety and support:

  1. Initial Consultation: We begin with a thorough medical evaluation and discussion of your needs. Our team answers all your questions and ensures you understand your options, including surgical abortion and induction abortion techniques.
  2. Cervical Preparation: Over the first 1–2 days, we gently prepare the cervix using medications and dilators. These steps are vital for a safe, comfortable procedure.
  3. Induction and Completion: On the final day, you’ll receive sedation to help you relax. The uterus is gently emptied using evidence-based protocols, always with your comfort and dignity as our top priorities.

We welcome support persons to be with you during much of your care, and our staff is available to offer emotional support, counseling, or grief resources as needed.
