Why Talk to Us About Abortion?

If you are considering abortion, you are facing an important and deeply personal decision. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or pressured, but you deserve the time and support needed to make a choice with clarity and confidence. Your health, your future, and the life growing within you all matter.

At Ascend Women’s Center, we offer a confidential, compassionate space where you can pause, ask questions, and receive medical information without judgment. Our goal is to ensure you are fully informed and supported as you explore every option available to you; options that honor both you and your baby.

The Importance of Accurate Medical Information

Before making any decision about your pregnancy, it’s essential to understand your health and the status of your pregnancy. Ascend Women’s Center offers free pregnancy testing and limited ultrasounds to give you reliable, timely information.

Ultrasounds provide critical insights, including:

• Confirming gestational age:  ensures you know how far along your pregnancy is.
  
• Checking viability: detects a fetal heartbeat to confirm the pregnancy is viable.
  
• Verifying location: confirms the pregnancy is safely in the uterus and not ectopic.

Having these facts allows you to make informed, confident decisions and helps protect your health. It also identifies rare but serious conditions that may require urgent care, giving you peace of mind as you consider your options.

Understanding Your Options

When you are under pressure, abortion may seem like the simplest way to solve a problem. However, true informed consent means fully understanding every path available to you.

We provide comprehensive options counseling that gives you the space to process all possibilities:

• Abortion: We will discuss the procedures (medical and surgical) and the potential physical, emotional, and long-term risks associated with each.
  
• Parenting: We detail the extensive local resources available, from prenatal care and material assistance to housing and medical care, to help you parent successfully.
  
• Adoption: We provide information on how adoption is a loving, selfless choice, including customizable, secure plans (open, semi-open, or closed) that respect your comfort level. We also connect you with trusted community partners who can provide additional guidance, support, and resources throughout the adoption process.
