NYC Abortion Home Care

A NYC abortion is a minor surgery and you should take good care of yourself for the following few days. Take it easy, listen to your body and use common sense. You may return to normal daily activities whenever you feel ready. This is generally within a couple of hours or 1-2 days following your NYC abortion.

Symptoms of pregnancy, including nausea, should be gone within 24 to 48 hours. Breast tenderness may last up to a week. Your body will be undergoing some changes in that time, due to a drop in the hormones of pregnancy. These hormonal changes can cause mood swings for a few days. It can also be normal to not have these mood swings, it does not mean that the abortion was not complete. Remember not to take a pregnancy test in the first few weeks after your NYC abortion - it will be positive. It can take up to 6 weeks after the abortion for a pregnancy test to become negative.

Bleeding and cramping may stop soon after your NYC abortion and then resume three to five days later. Passing of clots at that time is not unusual. You may continue to have bleeding or spotting for up to three weeks after your NYC abortion. This is normal. It is also normal to have little to no bleeding at all, so don’t be alarmed. Your activity level may affect the amount of bleeding or spotting and cramping you have.

You can expect to have your first normal menstrual period in four to eight weeks after your NYC abortion. It may be heavier and have more clots than your normal periods. If you are using birth control pills, you should have bleeding at the end of each cycle of pills. If you have no period after two cycles of pills, have a pregnancy test done. Be careful, you may get pregnant at any time following your NYC abortion so do not have unprotected sex.

After your NYC abortion, you should do the following:

  1. Take all of your prescribed medications
  2. Shower or bathe daily to promote good hygiene. If you are experiencing cramping, a warm tub bath or heating pad may help.
  3. It is OK to use tampons. However, do not douche. It increases the risk of infection.
  4. Abstain from sexual intercourse for two weeks. You risk getting pregnant again if you have sex in the next two weeks.

Call the Clinic if:

  1. Your temperature goes over 100.4o F. or 38o C.
  2. Your bleeding is twice as heavy as a heavy period, or if you soak more than one maxi pad per hour for two hours in a row.
  3. You have severe cramping that is not relieved by warm tub baths or medications such as Aleve, Advil, Midol, Tylenol, etc., taken for pain every three to four hours and you are unable to rest.
  4. You have no menstrual period within eight weeks.

A NYC abortion does not require a follow up check-up. However, if you want a check-up, your NYC abortion clinic should provide one at no additional charge. At the post NYC abortion check up, a pregnancy test and a pelvic exam should be performed.
