Cost of Abortion Procedures & Finding Clinics


Question
Dear Jodi,

Thank you for being there when people need advice.
It helps out in a situation like this.
I am sexually active and I use protection when with her. I don't have any concern that she is pregnant, although I need some info in case she does. We've talked about this matter and abortion is the only conclusion that we would face. I was wondernig how much does the procedure cost usually, and how do I go about looking for the medical clinic in the area that would perform the abortion?
Thank you again for being able to answer my questions.

                               Sincerely,
                                 Chad  

Answer
Chad,

I would strongly suggest that the two of you go to this web site and look at some of the facts and ideas it has on it.  It was set up and designed for young adults and high school aged teens.  www.hometown.aol.com/jodpemm/page1.html
And as always my email box and IM's are always open

As for the questions you have asked me today here are the answers:
." I was wondernig how much does the procedure cost usually, and how do I go about looking for the medical
clinic in the area that would perform the abortion? "
An abortion cost will differ.  I can not give you a flat answer but i can tell you that on average an abortion in early pregnancy will run about $250-350  it adds up when you consider that there are medications, to calm the young women, pain meds, and then there is the cost of the equipment, and the doc's that do the procedure.  Today since it has been legalized, the best way, and sometimes the cheapest way is the new abortion pill.  it is three pills taken at certian times during the day.
As for how to look for on.  do NOT look in the phone book.  Often pro-life groups will advertise under abortion clinics and then harass you when you call.  The best way to do it, is on the above site there is a link,  click on the part that talks abotulinks that we have checked out and verifed, on the page it takes you to is a link for abortion info.. you can find it there...  or you can call your local planned parenthood clinic
