The Importance of Safe Abortion Services to Women | Orlando Women’s Center.

Giving women access to abortion and post-abortion care through reliable abortion clinic services helps those who want to terminate their pregnancy to do so safely. The Orlando Women’s Center has been recognized as a women’s health care leader in and around Orlando for more than 25 years. We are a full-service private medical practice and offer the latest in state-of-the-art abortion procedures and services.

We provide first and second-trimester abortion services, as well as late-term procedures. The Orlando Women’s Center also offers crucial information about reproductive and sexual health. We believe that this information helps women prevent unwanted pregnancies and make the best choice regarding pregnancy termination.

The Importance of Safe Abortion Services to Women

In every nation around the globe, many women with unwanted pregnancies will seek abortions, safe or even otherwise. Unsafe methods of abortion, especially invasive ones, can lead to serious injuries, long term complications, and even death. Safe abortion clinics help in the reduction of such incidences that can affect the physical, psychological, and emotional health of thousands of women.

Lack of access to safe abortion results in a large percentage of all abortions being unsafe. Unsafe abortions remain a major public health concern, resulting in many survivors living with complications such as chronic pain and infertility. By providing our procedures to women where and when they need them, we hope to reduce the number of women who are forced to resort to unsafe options, risking their lives and health.

Our main goal at the Orlando Women’s Center is to provide open, safe, and friendly abortion procedures that are tailored to the specific needs of each and every one of our patients. We hold the belief that each woman has the right to determine her future. Whether this means using contraceptives in order to prevent unintended pregnancies or opting to the terminal a pregnancy through safe abortion. Access to safe abortion clinic services empowers a woman to determine her future and also contribute to a better future for everyone.

Our Services

We offer safe abortion and post-abortion care services to girls and women that have decided to terminate a pregnancy. We comply and respect the laws and regulations on abortion, but stand by women and girls in the drive to prevent unsafe abortions and prevent maternal deaths. We specialize in the termination of pregnancies of women who have fetal abnormalities and congenital anomalies. We provide both medical and surgical abortion procedures.

Medical Abortion Procedures

Medical abortion involves taking specific medication to terminate a pregnancy. Medical abortion is non-invasive and a much safer alternative to surgical abortion procedures. We can provide these services outside of a healthcare environment. The majority of the safe abortion services that we offer are medical abortion services.

Expanding access to medical abortion is among the important tools we use to combat the harms of unsafe abortions. Many of our patients who may be nervous about undergoing surgery opt for our medical abortion procedures that include the One Hour Abortion Pill.

We always ensure that we mention the possible complications from surgical procedures even though we ensure high levels of safety during the procedures. These concerns drive many of our patients to choose medical alternatives. Our medical abortion services have a very impressive success rate. About 99% of our patients who undergo the procedures find it to be completely effective.

It is worth noting that we have specific eligibility requirements for this procedure. You have to be between 3-12 weeks into the pregnancy to undergo our medical abortion procedures. In addition, we do not perform this procedure for patients with a number of medical conditions. For this reason, we run through any pre-existing medical conditions in all our patients in order to qualify them for the procedures.

We do this in order to ensure the safety of our patients during and after the procedures. One of the main advantages of our medical abortion procedures is that patients report minimal to no side effects or complications afterward. This means that our procedures offer a physically stress-free recovery process.

Surgical Abortion Procedures

Due to a number of reasons, some patients opt to undergo surgical abortion procedures to terminate their pregnancies. One major reason is the quickness of the procedure. We can perform and complete a surgical abortion procedure during your first visit to our clinic. Many patients are just not up for the sometimes long and drawn out nature of medical abortion procedures.

Our surgical procedures that have the extra benefit of Advanced IV Sedation make them an ideal alternative. We discuss all the available options with our patients beforehand. During this process, we will provide you with information regarding the surgical procedures including the side effects and possible complications, to help you in making your decision.

While being invasive, the advanced sedation and quickness of surgical abortion procedures provide a relatively less stressful experience for many women seeking to terminate their pregnancy. Advanced IV sedation serves to make the experience less stressful and comfortable. The sedation procedure is safe and painless, taking only three minutes.

While this procedure is not essential, many of our patients opt for it. The procedure will induce sleepiness and reduce your levels of anxiety and nervousness during the surgical abortion process. We always want to ensure that we afford our patients with as much comfort as we can.

We understand that undergoing an abortion is a stressful and anxious experience. This is one of the main reasons why we offer Advanced IV Sedation, an aspect that makes us stand out from the competition. You get to reduce the time spent in a stressful situation as you get it done and over within a single visit to our clinic.

Sexual and Reproductive Health Education

Our services to not start and end with the abortion procedures. We believe that offering reproductive and sexual health education to women and girls is equally, if not more important. When you have the necessary knowledge, you are much better placed to prevent unwanted pregnancy in the first place. It is quite surprising that many women and girls have grown up without access to the right information, given its importance to their overall well being.

The Orlando Women’s Center seeks to correct this. We provide tons of information and resources if you want to be better educated on reproductive and sexual health. This includes but is not limited to information regarding the various methods of emergency contraception, side effects, and possible complications. We also provide information on unwanted pregnancies as well as the different methods of termination (medical and surgical).
