In Clinic Abortion UAE

First-trimester in-clinic abortion is performed in our state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center and is a one-day procedure offered Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

A first trimester in-clinic abortion is one of the safest outpatient medical procedures and the most common outpatient procedure in the country.

When you arrive at REPRO, you will need to show your ID. You will be issued an ID number that will be used only for identification.

Throughout your visit, you will be called by this number instead of your name to conform to HIPAA Regulations and protect your privacy.

You will have a bracelet placed on your wrist with identifying information and be given a privacy notice and a patient information sheet for you to fill out in the waiting room.

Your escort must remember your ID number, as REPRO’ staff will not release any information about you to anyone who does not know your ID number.

A sonogram will be taken to determine the length of your pregnancy. Your sonographer will not discuss the results with you, but these will be shared by your counselor or provider.

You may also view the sonogram if you wish, and a copy of your sonogram can be requested after your visit through our Medical Records department.

You will be asked to provide a urine sample, and blood will be drawn for necessary testing. If required.

This is a private time for you to discuss any concerns you may have. The counselor will help you be sure that you are secure with your choice and understand all your options before continuing with the abortion procedure.

They will also review your full medical history. You will also need to sign a consent form for the abortion procedure.

Social workers are available for individuals that present specific issues that require further discussion, evaluation, and/or referral.

A nurse will call you into the intake area, an area with a tv shared with other patients awaiting services that is monitored by a medical professional. Your vital signs (blood pressure and temperature, height, weight) will be taken.

You will be asked to change into a medical gown and will put your personal items, including cell phone, into a locker for safe keeping. You will wait here until it is your time to be seen.

The doctor determines if you need an EKG or medical clearance or any other pre-op medication or diagnostic test, and this will happen prior to your procedure.

When you are called for your procedure, a Medical Assistant will bring you into the Procedure Room. Your doctor will review your medical history and describe the process with you and answer any questions you may have.

Your doctor will talk with you to see if you need any testing that needs to be done at this time, as well as future birth control options.

If you choose general Anesthesia and are cleared by our anesthesiologist, you will be prepped for and receive this prior to the start of your procedure.

You will not feel, hear, or see anything during the procedure, which generally takes between 5-15 minutes depending on how many weeks you are in your pregnancy.

When you wake up in bed in our recovery room, the procedure will be over, and you will be attended to and monitored by our nursing staff. Once you are ready, you will be moved to the Discharge Area.

In Discharge, you will rest on a reclining chair, have a snack and be given aftercare instructions. A nurse will assess your vital signs to determine when you are ready to leave. You should be able to go home in less than 1 hour, once it’s deemed clinically safe by assessment.

The time can vary, and the physician will make the final determination. You will also receive a prescription for an antibiotic to prevent infection after your procedure, and the discharge nurse will schedule your follow-up visit and provide more information and answer any questions you may have on birth control.

Once we have determined that you are well enough to leave, you will meet with the discharge nurse who will go over your aftercare instructions and answer any questions you may have, and she will discharge you with your escort.

If you do not have an escort, you will be required to remain for a total of 2 hours in the Recovery room. Should you have any concerns or questions after leaving, you can always call us, and we will help in whatever way we can.

We have a 24-hour answering service and depending on the nature of the call, we will be able to help with an RN or Physician. If you misplace your After Your Surgical Abortion instructions, you can find them posted on our website here.

Your doctor will discuss your medical history and the one-day procedure, addressing any questions you may have. The initial stage involves placing a Dilapan cervical dilator—a sterile device inserted by the doctor into the cervix to gently expand it.

This part of the procedure takes only a few minutes, and you will be comfortable under sedation (or anesthesia) during this time.

Patients are comfortably seated in PACU chairs, where our Registered Nurses monitor them and administer Misoprostol, an oral medication that prepares the cervix for the procedure.

This medication is placed inside the cheeks to dissolve, not swallowed. Our attentive nursing staff is ready to provide pain relief with IV acetaminophen when necessary, ensuring a comfortable experience.

After about 3-4 hours, once the medications and dilators have fully taken effect, patients return to the procedure room for the second stage: Dilation and Evacuation (D&E).

This involves gently opening the cervix and emptying the uterus using suction and surgical instruments. The procedure takes approximately 10-15 minutes, during which you will be asleep under deep sedation with anesthesia. You will not feel, hear, or see anything throughout the process of an In Clinic Abortion.

Following the procedure, patients recover in our state-of-the-art Recovery Room, with discharge following standard protocols.

This innovative one-day approach minimizes disruption to our patients’ lives while maximizing their comfort and care.

Second Trimester Abortion is performed between 13-24 weeks of pregnancy with a process called Dilation and Evacuation (D&E), a gentle opening of the cervix and emptying of the uterus using suction and surgical instruments.

Second Trimester abortion at REPRO is either a one-day or two-day procedure, depending on how far along you are in the pregnancy. Two-day procedures occur on consecutive (back-to-back) days, either Tuesday and Wednesday or Friday and Saturday.

Our Second Trimester Abortion providers are highly skilled and some of the most experienced doctors in the UAE providing this specialized care.

REPRO offers medical abortion (the “abortion pill”) to 10 weeks and surgical in-clinic abortion to 24 weeks of pregnancy.

All of your medical care at REPRO is entirely confidential. We do encourage teenagers to come with a trusted adult, but the decision to have an abortion or not is yours to make.

If you think you are pregnant, you can make an appointment at REPRO or walk in for a Confirmation of Pregnancy visit.

Abortion is available after the 5th week of pregnancy. If the pregnancy is too early to be confirmed during your visit, you will be evaluated and given a follow- up appointment for In Clinic Abortion.

Up to 12 weeks of pregnancy, abortion is a simple in-clinic procedure performed by gentle suction (vacuum aspiration) to remove the pregnancy from your uterus. The procedure itself takes about 5 to 10 minutes, with additional time at REPRO for preparation and recovery.

From 12 to 24 weeks of pregnancy, the procedure is called “D&E” (dilation and evacuation). This is a two-day procedure. On day one, your doctor will begin the procedure by inserting laminaria, a sterile product made specifically to dilate (open) the cervix. You can talk about this with a Counselor, and, if you choose, you can be put to sleep for the few minutes it takes for laminaria to be inserted.

After this is completed, you can then go home. This procedure takes only a few minutes, but you will be at REPRO for approximately 2 hours, including lab work and a private session with a Counselor where you will have a chance to talk about the procedure and raise any questions or concerns you may have.

On day two the doctor will safely empty your uterus using gentle suction and medical tools. If you choose to, and if there are no medical contraindications, you will have deep sedation for a surgical abortion which will put you completely asleep during the procedure so you will not feel any pain.

The procedure takes only 5-20 minutes, depending on how far along in pregnancy you are, but you should plan on being at REPRO for several hours to include pre-operative preparation and recovery.

Dilation and Curettage (D&C) is a brief, safe surgical procedure to open the cervix and empty the contents of the uterus, usually using suction (vacuum aspiration).

It is the most common method for treating early miscarriage as well as the preferred method of abortion up to 12 weeks of pregnancy.

Yes. All our doctors are licensed by UAE and specialize in pregnancy termination.

Your comfort and wellbeing are very important. If you choose to, and if there are no medical contraindications, you will have deep sedation for a surgical abortion which will put you completely asleep during the procedure so you will not feel any pain.

After the procedure you may experience cramping, which can range from mild to moderate. In most cases Extra Strength Tylenol, Aleve or Motrin will relieve the cramping. If the cramping is not relieved with these remedies, you should call us immediately.

If for personal or medical reasons you need local anesthesia (a lidocaine injection), you will experience moderate to severe cramping during the procedure, but recovery time afterwards will be shorter.

You will be asleep for 5-20 minutes, depending on whether the procedure is performed in the first or second trimester.

Most patients experience some cramping that can be relieved by over-the-counter medications such as Extra Strength Tylenol or Advil. If that does not help, we ask the patient to call our 24-hour emergency number. You may take a shower after surgery.

Do not take tub baths, douche, use tampons or have intercourse for two weeks. This is to prevent any risk of infection or a new pregnancy. Avoid any products that contain aspirin as aspirin promotes bleeding. Please see What To Expect After Your Procedure.

In almost all cases, surgical abortion is completely effective. A small percentage of cases will require respiration if unusual bleeding occurs or if there is retained tissue.

If you choose to pay out of pocket, the cost will vary from 4000 to 7000, depending on how far along you are in pregnancy.

If you have had a C-Section, there are certain limitations for surgical abortions at REPRO. If you are in your first trimester (3 months) of pregnancy, you cannot have an abortion at REPRO if you have had more than 3 C-sections.

If you are 13-17 weeks pregnant, you cannot have an abortion at REPRO if you have had more than 2 C-sections.

If you are 18-20 weeks, you cannot have an abortion at REPRO if you have had more than 1 C-Section. If you are more than 20 weeks pregnant, you cannot have an abortion at REPRO if you have had a C-Section.

The deep sedation anesthesia that we offer is safe, effective and short acting. You will be asleep from 5-20 minutes depending on the procedure.

There is always some degree of risk with any anesthesia, but serious complications with deep sedation are very rare at REPRO.

Most complications occur when a patient has had food or liquid within 8 hours of surgery In Clinic Abortion.

Tell your Counselor and doctor if you have had prior complications with anesthesia, if you have any allergies to medicine, or if you have had anything to eat or drink within 8 hours prior to your surgery.
