  • For pregnancies less than 14 weeks . The procedure SHOULD NOT be routinely completed by sharp curettage
  • It can be performed manually or with an electric vacuum aspirator.
  • Routine use of antibiotics at the time of surgical abortion is best practice as it reduces the risk of infection after the abortion.
  • Recommendations for perisurgical abortion antibiotic prophylaxis are:

    • 500 mg azithromycin within 2 hours before the procedure.
