Johannesburg Abortion Care
Abortion is a common, safe, and legal way to end a pregnancy in Johannesburg. If you are pregnant and are currently considering the possibility of terminating your pregnancy with an abortion, we are here to help. Whether you have already decided or are undecided, we provide you with all of the information and resources that will support whatever decision you make. Our doctors are very experienced and use the best and safest methods.
Methods of Termination
There are two types of abortions, these include:
- Medical abortion (the “abortion pill,” or RU-486) is available up to 10 weeks of pregnancy.
- Surgical or in-clinic abortion is available 22 weeks after the start of your last menstrual period.
Medical abortion is a procedure that uses medication to end a pregnancy. A medical abortion doesn’t require surgery or anesthesia and can be started either in a medical office or at home. In-clinic abortion works by using suction to take a pregnancy out of your uterus. Our doctor will know which type is right for you, depending on how far you are into your pregnancy. We give you medication to end your pregnancy misoprostol. Once you get your medicine, you can have your abortion at home or in another comfortable place that you choose or at our clinic.
