Our Tampa Legal Abortion by Pill Clinic is offering the latest, safest and most advanced techniques for providing non-surgical, medical and surgical abortion methods for early first and second trimester, and late term abortion via Suction Curettage, Dilatation and Evacuation, and or induction of labor with the use of Prostaglandins (Cytotec, Misoprostol) or Oxytocin. This includes the use of the RU486 Abortion Pill (non-surgical abortion, chemical abortion, Mifeprex, mifepristone) that is effective, safe and has minimal side effects. RU486 side effects include headache, abdominal pain, constipation, lightheadedness, dizziness, nausea, and rarely vomiting. There is a 1 to 5% chance of vaginal bleeding occurring before taking the second medication (cytotec, misoprostol) which causes uterine contractions. The RU486 pills are more effective at terminating pregnancy than with use of Methotrexate followed by cytotec for causing uterine contractions. The earlier the pregnancy, the more effective the medical abortion procedure. If the medical abortion procedure fails which occurs in less than 5% of time, a suction abortion procedure must be performed. A state of the art sonogram (ultrasound) is performed on all patients. The Legal Abortion by Pill Clinic is dedicated to providing services in a warm, supportive atmosphere where patient comfort and safety always comes first. If you or someone you love is facing an unwanted pregnancy, we’re here to help. Please call or visit. You’ll see our difference.
The use of cervical ripening techniques with Laminaria and Cytotec are done when indicated for surgical first and second trimester and late term abortion when deemed necessary to provide for the safest termination procedure with the least risk of morbidity. The incidence of complications are lower than the average in the U.S.
