an abortion consultation can help you work through all your reasons

You can fill in the blank. You have your very own, very personal considerations when making an unplanned pregnancy decision. You may be scared, feeling alone, unsteady, and completely unsure of your future. The decision to have an abortion is rarely made lightly and one that you do not have to make alone. There are any number of reasons you want an abortion and an abortion consultation can help you work through all of them.

When making a decision that can have lifelong consequences, it is always a good idea to slow down and consider all possibilities. If you are pregnant and considering or want an abortion, give Alcove Health clinic a call. We provide free and confidential services including a safe space to process all of your thoughts and emotions about this decision.

There are a few services at Alcove Health you may find helpful before you make a final decision:

1. Abortion Education – Alcove’s Registered Nurses can provide you with the knowledge you deserve before having an abortion so you can protect your reproductive health and be aware of what risks there may be with either a medical or surgical abortion.
2. Early Pregnancy Ultrasounds – Having an ultrasound performed by a medical professional will provide you with valuable medical information regardless of if you want an abortion or want to continue with your pregnancy. There are three pieces of information that you will find helpful before you decide. 
a. Heartbeat – Between 10% – 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. An ultrasound can verify there is a heartbeat before you pay for a procedure you may not need.
b. Location of the pregnancy – A pregnancy that is not in the uterus can be a medical emergency. An ultrasound will let you know if the pregnancy is in the right place. This is important to know before any abortion procedure is started.
c. Age of the pregnancy – Dating your pregnancy based only on the date of your last period may not give you accurate information. Many things can cause an irregular period so you don’t want to make an abortion decision based on your period alone. Knowing the correct gestational age of the pregnancy will allow you to know what abortion options are available to you.
3. Options Consultation – Alcove Health’s trained client advocates can help you process your thoughts and emotions in a safe non-judgmental space. You can discuss your feelings on all your options.

Regardless of your reason for considering an abortion, it’s important to get accurate information. You may be hearing some very loud opinions and it can be overwhelming. The decision you make will be a lifetime decision. It is important that you get all of the answers to all of your questions and concerns before making a final decision.
