Considering Abortion
Abortion is not always an easy choice to make. When you’re considering your next best step, you have rights and you have needs. We are fully committed to providing you with accurate information in a non-judgmental environment surrounding this personal decision. Because making choices without being fully informed – isn’t really choosing.
Although SCV Pregnancy Center does not provide or refer for abortion, we do provide testing that you would need before considering a termination. We offer free medical grade pregnancy testing plus limited obstetrical ultrasound confirmation for your health, your reproductive future, and your reproductive rights.
You May Be Considering Abortion If...
-
You do not wish to let others know you are pregnant.
-
You do not want to interrupt your life plans.
-
You are experiencing pressure from others to terminate your pregnancy.
-
There is both financial and emotional stress which would affect you caring for a baby.
-
You have health concerns for yourself or the baby.
A medical professional can discuss the different types of abortion procedures, as well as emotional or physical risks associated with each one. A caring case manager can help you determine the risks and benefits to each option, so you have all the information you need to feel empowered moving forward.

Why Get An Ultrasound?
-
When ultrasound is provided following your positive pregnancy test, you’ll know if your pregnancy is viable or not. Since 1 in 4 pregnancies end naturally through miscarriage, that’s vital information-whether you’re considering abortion or making other plans.
-
Having an ultrasound following a positive pregnancy test provides you with confirmation of your current stage of pregnancy.
Every decision has its own realities, which is why you have the right to know about ALL your options. We provide medically accurate information, pregnancy testing and ultrasound confirmation - all by medical professionals, free of charge.
No strings, no insurance traces, no waiting, no judgment or censorship. Medically accurate, evidence-based information and confidential, compassionate care is our priority and standard of care.
