There are different types of surgical abortion procedure and the method used depends on how long you have been pregnant, your medical history and your personal choice.
Surgical abortions are performed as a day-care procedure so you will not have to stay in the clinic overnight and you can travel home the same day.
Discharge times differ depending on the length of the pregnancy and also on the anaesthetic used. An estimated time of discharge will be given to you when you make your appointment so you can make travel arrangements.
