If pregnancy test is positive and I want to avoid pregnancy?

If you wish to avoid pregnancy and have confirmed a positive pregnancy test result, you have a few options:

Immediately consult with your healthcare provider:

- If you are still in the early stages of your pregnancy, your doctor may discuss different options, including medical abortion medication or surgical procedures, based on your specific circumstances and preferences.

- Your doctor will provide guidance on the next steps and can manage any concerns or questions you have.

Medical abortion medication:

- This method is commonly used up to 10 weeks of pregnancy.

- It involves taking specific medications to induce contractions and empty the uterus.

- Your healthcare provider will prescribe and closely monitor the process.

Surgical abortion procedure:

- There are different types of surgical abortion procedures, depending on the stage of pregnancy.

- The most common method is vacuum aspiration, performed before 15 weeks of pregnancy, where a gentle suction is used to remove the contents of the uterus.

- Other procedures, like dilation and evacuation, may be used later in pregnancy.

Remember, these decisions are highly personal:

- It is important to take your time, consider all options, and ultimately make the choice that feels best for you and your overall well-being.

- Your healthcare provider will provide you with the necessary information and support to help you make an informed decision.
