When can I have sex again?

We recommend that you wait at least 3 weeks, or until you have returned for your follow-up visit, before engaging in intercourse; this is to prevent infection as well as another pregnancy.

Why would I need a Rhogam shot?

Rhogam is offered to patients that have negative (-) blood types. Each time you get pregnant, whether you are going to terminate or carry to term, Rhogam is recommended.

Can I be put to sleep?

We do not put anyone to sleep at our facility (it helps us to keep our costs low to you, as well as minimizes post-procedure complications. Anesthesia has a much higher complication rate than abortion procedures), but we do offer additional sedation. We do require that you have a driver if you choose to get additional sedation.

Does Medicaid or insurance pay for the procedure?

Medicaid and most insurance companies do not cover the abortion procedure. While we are not an insurance provider, we will be more than happy to supply you with a claim form to turn into your insurance company for reimbursement if applicable.

Do you have payment plans?

We do not offer payment plans but if you need financial help we can help you obtain support from several pro-choice organizations. We accept cash, money orders, and credit/debit cards (VISA, American Express, and MasterCard).

Is an abortion safe and legal? 

Abortions have less than a 1% complication rate, making them one of the safest procedures in the United States. Despite laws differing in each state, abortion is legal up through 20 weeks of gestation in North Carolina and up to 23.6 weeks in Georgia.
