Understanding second trimester abortion options
At Hope Clinic, second trimester abortion care is provided through D&E procedures:
- D&E under 16 weeks: This is generally completed in one visit. Patients from Toledo, Ohio who are earlier in the second trimester often choose this option for its efficiency.
- D&E from 16–24 weeks (and up to 34 weeks in some cases): This process requires 2–3 consecutive visits. While it takes more time, patients say the structure gave them a sense of calm because they knew what to expect each day.
What the process feels like
For those under 16 weeks, the experience is often described as quick, safe, and handled entirely in one day. For those further along, the multi-day D&E involves preparation on the first day, followed by the procedure itself over the next 1–2 visits.
Patients from Toledo, OH often share that the staff’s compassion made the difference, turning what could have been a frightening process into one they felt guided through with respect and care.
Support beyond the procedure
When the medical care ends, support continues. Patients leave with detailed instructions, staff contact information, and access to helpful resources. Many also explore our birth control information and education resources to plan ahead.
