What to Expect from Our 3rd Trimester Abortion Process

At VAG Clinic, third trimester abortion care is performed using the induction method, which is recognized for its safety and effectiveness when provided by skilled professionals. The process typically involves three visits to our Albuquerque clinic, although your individual needs may vary.

Step-by-Step: The Induction Abortion Process

  1. Initial Evaluation & Preparation: On your first day, our medical team will review your health history, discuss your options, and begin cervical preparation using oral medications and gentle dilators.
  2. Continued Dilation & Support: Day two focuses on further softening and opening of the cervix, ensuring your comfort and monitoring your well-being throughout.
  3. Completion & Recovery: On the final day, additional sedation is provided to keep you relaxed. The uterus is safely emptied, and our team closely monitors your recovery, offering emotional and physical support as needed.

This method allows you to have a support person with you during much of the process, ensuring you feel cared for at every moment. Our staff is always available for questions, reassurance, or assistance.
