  1. Day 1: You will meet your care team, receive oral medications to begin cervical softening, and have osmotic dilators placed.
  2. Day 2: Additional medications and monitoring help ensure safe, gentle dilation and continued support from your provider.
  3. Day 3: Once optimal dilation is achieved, the uterine evacuation procedure is performed under sedation to maximize comfort and safety.

Throughout your care, we encourage you to have a support person with you whenever possible. Our staff is available to answer questions and provide reassurance at every stage.
