Abortion Information
There are a variety of abortion options available in Louisiana. Before you decide if, when, and where to have an abortion, your first step is a medical consultation and diagnosis. Care Pregnancy Clinic offers a free pre-termination evaluation to help you navigate your pregnancy decisions.
Before Considering Abortion
If you’re pregnant and considering abortion, your first step is to schedule a free pre-termination evaluation to answer these three essential questions:
1: Will my pregnancy end naturally?
2: How far along am I?
3: Do I have an STD?
Having any type of abortion with an untreated STD jeopardizes a woman’s health by increasing her risk of infection and other complications.3 Since over 70% of women who have Chlamydia do not have any symptoms,4 it is critical to get tested before pursuing an abortion.
Care Pregnancy Clinic’s free pre-termination evaluation will give you the answers you need to make the decision that’s best for you. If you think you may be pregnant, call, text or schedule online today.
