What Is a Late Term Abortion?
A late term abortion refers to abortion care provided later in pregnancy, generally after the first trimester. At Hope Clinic, we define late term abortion as any surgical abortion performed after 16 weeks of pregnancy. These procedures are medically complex and require a highly skilled team, individualized planning, and thoughtful care. Our clinic is equipped to provide this level of advanced care with a focus on your safety and comfort.
Late Term Abortion After 16 Weeks
If you are more than 16 weeks pregnant, your abortion procedure may require one to two visits. The exact approach depends on your gestational age and personal medical needs.
- Day One: You may receive medications or cervical dilators to begin preparing your body for the procedure. Our staff will guide you through what to expect and ensure your comfort throughout this first stage.
- Day Two: The abortion is typically completed using a combination of vacuum aspiration and a procedure known as dilation and evacuation (D&E). This is a standard and safe method for pregnancies in the second and third trimesters.
Our physicians are highly trained in performing D&E procedures up to 34 weeks of pregnancy, and all care is delivered in accordance with the latest medical standards and ethical guidelines.
Comprehensive Care for Every Patient
At Hope Clinic, we understand that each patient’s situation is unique. Our team provides judgment-free support and personalized medical attention, with services that include:
- In-depth consultation and counseling
- Pain and sedation management
- On-site recovery care
- Emotional and logistical support
- Assistance with travel and funding, if needed
We work with abortion funds and national support networks to ensure that cost, travel distance, or state laws do not prevent you from getting the care you need.
