Medical Abortion<\/h2>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t

Medical abortion, also known as the\u00a0<\/span>abortion pill\u00a0or RU-486, is used through 10 weeks. This method uses two drugs, the first to terminate the pregnancy and the second to expel the pregnancy. Some side effects and potential risks of the abortion pill method include:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • An incomplete abortion requiring surgery<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Heavy and prolonged bleeding<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Abdominal and\/or pelvic pain<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Infection<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Surgical Abortion<\/h2>\n
    \n\t
    \n\t\t

    Surgical abortion is performed in a clinic. There are different types of surgical procedures depending on how far along you are. Each procedure requires your cervix to be dilated. Vacuum aspiration, a curette (scraping tool), and possibly forceps are used to remove the pregnancy. Though rare, there are some possible side effects and risks of surgical abortion which include:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Perforation of the uterus<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Damage to the cervix<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Scar tissue on the uterine wall<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Infection<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Heavy bleeding<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Abortion InformationAGAPE provides free abortion information in Des Moines, IowaSchedule An Appointment If you\u2019re considering abortion in Iowa, AGAPE is here to provide you with...","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-42517","page","type-page","status-publish"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAbortion - AGAPE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"If you\u2019re considering abortion in Iowa, AGAPE is here to provide you with free and confidential support.
