Medical Pregnancy termination in Los Angeles

If you’re considering pregnancy termination in Los Angeles please seek qualified medical and emotional support. Our experienced doctors and staff operate with the utmost sensitivity and confidentiality to ensure that each patient is taken care of and feels supported during this trying time.

Please be aware that there are two options for early pregnancy termination – Medical and Surgical.

Medical:

1) Early termination with the use of a pill. This option is provided to women who are less than 8 weeks pregnant.

Surgical:

2) The other option is a surgical procedure offered to patients who are further along in their pregnancy (8-12 weeks) or are not able to tolerate the discomfort of the self-induced miscarriage at home.

How does the medical abortion work?

Medical termination requires the action of two medications, Mifeprex and Cytotec taken on consecutive days.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Mifeprex Pregnancy Termination?

To establish whether you are a good candidate for a medical abortion using Mifeprex in Los Angeles, one of our team members will see you in the office and establish whether you meet the following requirements:

  • Perform an ultrasound to establish that you do not have an ectopic pregnancy
  • Using ultrasound make sure the pregnancy is not too far along
  • Take history and perform an examination to establish that you do not have any underlying medical conditions that could result in complications from the procedure.

You will not be eligible for a non-surgical termination if you:
