Understanding Your Options
If you’re facing an unplanned pregnancy, you may feel overwhelmed by all the decisions ahead. However, you don’t have to figure everything out alone. At Lakeside Women’s Clinic, our nurses and staff provide accurate medical information and emotional support as you explore your options.
All our consultations are confidential and offered at no cost. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, discuss your circumstances, and receive guidance in a non-judgmental, caring environment.
Abortion
If you’re considering abortion, it’s essential to understand your pregnancy details before making a decision as it determines what abortion procedures are available and what risks they carry.
Our clinic provides pregnancy verification, limited STD/STI testing,and limited ultrasound to verify fetal viability ( heartbeat), and how far along the pregnancy is at no cost. Our nurses can also discuss information about abortions, like the abortion pill so you can make an informed decision. This information includes how the abortion procedures go, risks and side effects and other important information for you to consider. We do not refer or promote abortions.
Adoption
Adoption may feel like a difficult choice, but for many women, it can also be an empowering one. Today’s adoption process gives birth parents more options and control than ever before. You can choose the adoptive family and the level of communication you’d like to have in the future.
Our clinic can connect you with licensed agencies and provide emotional support as you consider whether adoption may be the right path for you.
Parenting
Parenting can bring both joy and challenges. You may have concerns about your finances, relationships, or ability to care for a child. That’s completely normal.
During your consultation, our staff offers informational classes from pregnancy to parenting, and can help you explore community resources and referrals for material assistance to help you feel prepared and supported.
We’re Here For You
You don’t have to make these decisions alone. Schedule your no-cost options consultation at Lakeside Women’s Clinic today and talk with a nurse about your next steps.
