Abortion

An abortion is a safe medical procedure that ends a pregnancy and can be provided in a medical office or at home, depending on the stage of pregnancy. At FPA Women’s Health, we offer confidential abortion care at clinics throughout California, as well as telehealth options for eligible patients. Abortion is a basic healthcare service and an important part of family planning for many women.

Medication Abortion (Abortion Pill)

How does the abortion pill work?

If you choose to end a pregnancy in its early stages (typically 5–10 weeks), you may decide to use the abortion pill instead of a surgical procedure. Medication abortion uses two FDA-approved medications to safely end a pregnancy.

The first medication stops the pregnancy from continuing to grow. The second medication causes cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus, similar to a miscarriage.

In most cases, the abortion process is completed within 4–5 hours, though lighter bleeding may continue afterward. Many patients prefer this option because it can be completed in the privacy and comfort of home with medical support from our team.

How safe are surgical abortions?

Surgical abortions ​​​​​​are very safe and effective when performed by experienced OB/GYN providers, like the clinicians at FPA Women’s Health. Procedures are completed in a safe, sterile medical setting with attentive care from our medical team before, during, and after the procedure.

Our team explains each step of the process, helps manage comfort, and provides clear aftercare instructions to support your recovery.
