Vacuum abortion
If you decide to have an abortion in your first trimester, your health professional may opt for a vacuum abortion rather than a medical abortion. The gynecologist may need help to dilate your cervix first using medication. This will help open your cervix to allow medical tools to enter.
Some hospitals require overnight hospitalization of the patient before the abortion. In such cases, the doctor may dilate the cervix the night before the abortion. She may perform the procedure the following morning. However, at AHB, the latest cervix dilatation techniques are available making dilatation an instant process. So, the dilatation and abortion can complete in just a few minutes without overnight hospitalization. Furthermore, hospital stay is usually not necessary in uncomplicated cases both before and after the abortion. You can visit the hospital by appointment, get the abortion and take discharge the same day.
The Procedure:
Once your cervix is wide enough, you are ready to have the procedure. Next, you will lie on a comfortable examination couch with support for your feet and legs. You may be given a mild sedative. It’s much better than anesthesia. Anesthesia may have some after-effects but mild sedation is safe and effective in most cases. However, anesthetist is also available for instances where sedation may not be the most suitable method.
Your health professional will then insert a slender medical tool that is known as a speculum into your vagina. It will help to keep your cervix and vagina gently open. The doctor will then clean your vagina area and inject an anesthetic into your cervix to numb the area. Next, she will insert a small tube attached to a suction device at an end and also to a collection bottle. This will then gently clear out the contents of your uterus by sucking them. The procedure will only take a few minutes from start to finish. After the procedure, the doctor will keep monitoring to ensure you are well and that the surgical abortion procedure was successful.

However, for an early recovery, the doctor will guide you regarding a post-abortion diet and medications to continue for a couple of days.
Dilation and Evacuation (D&E)
If you are more than 12 weeks pregnant, you will most likely need a D&E. As in the case of the vacuum abortion, they will need to dilate your cervix. This will allow the doctor to insert the medical tools without damaging your cervix. Firstly, the health professional will clean the cervix area and use an anesthetic to numb the cervix area.
The main difference between the vacuum abortion and the D&E is that they will use a curette, or forceps, rather than the vacuum to clear out the contents of the uterus. The doctor will loosen the pregnancy tissue using the curette. Net, she may finish off the procedure with a vacuum or suction to remove the contents fully from the uterus. The procedure usually takes 10 -20 minutes. However, they will monitor you afterwards to ensure you are well and to ensure that the procedure was effective.
