Abortion, like every medical procedure, is a serious procedure available in Pennsylvania through 23 week, six days as measured from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). An abortion may cost anywhere from $625 to $3,000 or more depending on the type of abortion procedure and how far along you are and any complications that may require further treatment. The decision is yours to make; no one can force you to have a medical procedure without your consent.
Medical/Chemical Abortion
A medical/chemical abortion involves taking two medications. The first medication (mifepristone) interrupts pregnancy development by blocking progesterone, prompting detachment of an implanted embryo. The second medication (misoprostol) is taken later to induce strong contractions to empty the uterus. Patient can expect nausea (possibly vomiting), cramping, and bleeding. A surgical abortion may still be needed (8-10% of women) to complete the process.
The staff at NorthStar will provide an ultrasound at no cost to you so you will know how far along you are. We will answer all of your questions about the risks and side effects. You will also be given information about other options and resources.
