Before visiting an abortion provider, take a moment to consider the following key questions.
1. Is the Abortion Clinic and Provider Licensed and Inspected?
Abortion facilities should meet specific licensing and regulatory standards; however, the frequency and outcomes of inspections can vary.4 You have the right to research a provider’s compliance history and ask direct questions about safety standards and oversight.
2. Who Will Perform the Abortion Procedure?
You have every right to ask about the qualifications of the person performing the abortion. While abortion procedures are performed by physicians, levels of experience and training can vary. You may also want to ask about the provider’s experience with complications and whether there have been past malpractice claims or complaints associated with the clinic.
3. What Emergency Protocols Are in Place?
Every medical procedure carries some level of risk. According to medical sources, abortion—whether surgical or chemical—can involve potential complications such as infection, excessive bleeding, or incomplete abortion.1, 3
Before proceeding, ask:
- What happens if a complication occurs?
- Is there a clear emergency protocol?
- Will you be transferred to a hospital if necessary?
Knowing these answers ahead of time matters for your safety. If complications arise, seek emergency medical care immediately. Under Texas law, a woman who obtains an abortion (or a woman who has previously obtained an abortion) CANNOT be prosecuted or sued.5
4. Who Provides Anesthesia or Sedation?
If anesthesia or sedation is used, it should only be administered by trained and qualified medical professionals. Be sure to ask who will be responsible for this aspect of care and what credentials they hold.
5. Will an Ultrasound Be Offered First?
Ultrasounds play an important role before an abortion procedure. They can help confirm:
- Whether the pregnancy is developing normally
- The location of the pregnancy (to rule out ectopic pregnancy)
- How far along the pregnancy is (gestational age)
Accurate dating matters, especially since gestational age affects abortion methods and associated risks.²
At Pregnancy Help 4 U, we offer free ultrasounds (upon evaluation) at no cost to you.
You Have Options. You Have Time.

Abortion is currently banned in the state of Texas except to preserve the life of the pregnant woman, and in cases where the pregnancy poses a serious risk of substantial impairment of a major bodily function.
This does not affect care for miscarriage or ectopic pregnancies. A woman who obtains an abortion cannot be held criminally or civilly liable. It is illegal to ship abortion inducing drugs into the state of Texas. The FDA does not recommend buying the abortion pill online as it may bypass important safeguards.
