“I want an abortion.”

We get it. You’re overwhelmed.

You were not looking for this to happen. A pregnancy
will change everything, so this is an important decision.
But it’s a decision you don’t have to make alone.
We’re here to walk you through the process.
And at Source Medical it’s always your choice.

Before you seek an abortion appointment, or even if
you already have an appointment, get all the
information you can.

All services at Source Medical are confidential.

Here’s where we start:

1

Make sure you’re pregnant
Before wrestling with all of the emotions that go into scheduling an abortion it’s important to verify that you’re actually pregnant. Even if you have taken a home pregnancy test, you need a medical quality pregnancy test
to confirm it.

2

Get an ultrasound
An ultrasound is imperative before considering abortion. Ultrasounds provide critical information to pinpoint date of conception. It also verifies viability of the pregnancy and assess likelihood of the pregnancy ending in a natural miscarriage. As 1 in 4 early pregnancies end in natural miscarriage this assessment will give you insight about whether or not you need to pursue an abortion.

3

Know your options
There are many different abortion methods used at different stages of pregnancy. We can walk you through these options and help you understand what to expect with each abortion procedure and the associated risk factors.

Some women report regrets after having an abortion.
  Those reporting regret say they:

  • Made the decision alone

Abortion Pill

Have you already taken the first dose of the abortion pill?
Do you wish you could reverse its effects?

It’s important to know what you’re bringing into your body. The abortion pill, also known as Mifepristone, is given by a doctor before a woman has reached 10 weeks of pregnancy. The entire process takes place over two stages – taking Mifepristone and then taking Misoprostol 24-72 hours afterwards.

The first pill is usually given at the clinic before leaving the appointment. When a woman changes her mind, it may not be too late to reverse the effects of the first abortion pill.

If you have changed your mind after taking the first pill, we’re here for you and to help you. But you need to get in touch with us quickly.

By calling us, we can refer you to a physician who can prescribe a process called the Abortion Pill Reversal.
We can make this connection with you as long as the timing is within the 24-72 hour long window.

This isn’t a decision you have to make alone. We’re here to walk with you through the process.
And at Source Medical, it’s always your choice. If you’re interested in learning more about the
Abortion Pill Reversal, we strongly recommend you visit AbortionPillReversal.com

We’re still here for you after abortion.

If you have experienced a previous abortion, please know we care deeply and are here for you! It is not uncommon to deal with painful memories about a pregnancy crisis and abortion experience. Post-abortion stress is difficult to navigate on your own.

Are you or a friend suffering from post-abortion stress?
Here are the most common signs we see:
Guilt

Many who have wrestled hard to proceed with an abortion cannot help but experience guilt. Most commonly, they express this as a feeling that they themselves violated their own sense of right and wrong and do not know how to deal with these overwhelming emotions.

Anxiety

Some people actually experience physical expressions of anxiety about their abortion experience. The most common symptoms we see are chronic headaches, dizziness, pounding heart, abdominal cramps, muscle tightness, and fitful sleep.

Disconnection

The psychological need for numbing emotional pain can result in an unconscious vow to never let anything hurt this badly again. This resolve typically causes a retreating from community or relationships as the risk of repeated pain is perceived as too great. This experience only isolates people further and can worsen other symptoms.

Depression

Sudden mood swings, overall sadness, uncontrollable crying episodes, deterioration of self-concept, sleep and appetite disturbances, reduced motivation, loss of normal sources of pleasure, thoughts of suicide have all been reported after abortion. These symptoms may happen for a period after the abortion or may be triggered by reminders about signifant dates like the anniversary date of the actual abortion, time of conception or due date of the aborted child.

Excessive Worry

Some report they become obsessed with with becoming pregnant again and experience anxiety about whether they will ever become pregnant in the future when they are ready.

Flashbacks

Current events triggering traumatic memories of the abortion.
