Procedural Abortion

What To Expect

Most procedural abortions are performed by a method called suction dilation and curettage (D&C). With this technique, the cervix is opened with dilators and suction is then used to empty the uterus. The entire procedure takes under 10-15 minutes.

Procedural abortions are done in a single day. In some cases, patients are given the misoprostol soon after arriving to the clinic and will then wait 60 minutes to 3 hours for the medication to take effect. Misoprostol is used to help prepare your cervix for the procedure.
