Abortion questions ?

[Bubble666]

Where can I get an abortion and how many appointments will I need to attend before I will be given the abortion pill (I am before 9 weeks)

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to this. I would get an emergency appointment with GP to talk over your options.
Hopefully someone will be along with some accurate advice.
Are you ok? Are you safe? Good luck.

Usually you see your GP, who will then send a referral to your local hospital...they will then contact you with a date to go in and discuss your options and if you decide you want to go ahead with the termination they will give you a date to come back to take the pills. Depending on how far along in the pregnancy you are, you would then need to go back a week after to pass the foetus. I was 10+2.

Obviously this would be different depending on exactly how far along you are and where you live. From my first gp appointment to the end was around 5 weeks.

Call the gum clinic at your local hospital in the morning (or just go in if they have a walk in session).

I attended the walk in session there and they rebooked me to come back for counselling a few days later.

The appt lasted 10 minutes and they gave me the pill then. I had to come back a few days later for another pill and that was it.

I know it's hard now but it gets easier and I don't regret it. I was in an awful position at the time and i made the right choice for me.

I went to the GP and was referred, spent a day on the ward as an outpatient, and that was that... It was less than a week. I was 9 weeks when I saw the GP.

Have you called BPAS or Marie Stopes? This is what we had to do as you don't go through GP in my area. You can self refer to them and they will guide you through. It was about 2 weeks start to finish for mine but that's because I wanted surgical not medical management.

Good luck
