Most early suction abortions can be performed safely in a specifically equipped procedure room in a doctor's office. Rarely, the doctor may recommend that the pregnancy be terminated in a hospital. Abortions are not performed at Hall Health. Our counselor can assist you in selecting an abortion provider. Suction abortion may be done as early as five to six weeks from the last menstrual period.
Some doctors prefer to wait until seven or eight weeks.
Later terminations cost more. Most doctors require full payment in advance of the operation. Your insurance may cover some of the charges. Call your insurance office for information. Medical assistance may be available to eligible low- income women.
