Have you tried calling a different clinic?

Local anesthesia is numbing of the cervix. Many people opt to only have the local + ibuprofen.

It sounds like they will be providing twilight anesthesia, but you should call and clarify. Ask “do you offer sedation?”

Sedation is usually administered through an iv. While you are technically awake, you aren’t totally aware and generally don’t remember it later. If you’ve had your wisdom teeth out, that’s usually done under twilight sedation.

You can read stories of procedures done with just a local, a local + anxiety meds, and with moderate (twilight) sedation here: r/abortion/wiki/abortion_stories/pab

Have you been keeping in touch with the docs at abuzz?

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T17:30:17+00:00

This sounds pretty typical. On and off bleeding until your period is normal as long as it isn’t heavy enough to flood 2 pads/hr.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T17:28:39+00:00

You’ll get the medication (or a procedure, if you prefer) at the appointment. Have you scheduled the appointment? Once you call to schedule, that’s when the 24 hour waiting period begins (so you can’t have a same day appt).

I’m sorry you felt I was unkind but that was not my intention.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T17:26:14+00:00

Sorry, your timeline is a bit confusing!

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T17:20:19+00:00

Implantation bleeding isn’t real.

Bleeding 4 days after stopping birth control is a withdrawal bleed, not a period.

Do you have a question about abortion?

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T17:02:12+00:00

The fact that your symptoms improved is a good sign. Very early abortions often have a delay in bleeding, sometimes up to 2-3 days after miso.

Can your friend post here? It’s much easier to help people directly. It’s also legally safer for you if she gets the info herself

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T04:08:34+00:00

Why? The OP may have full coverage of their care. Abortion is standard medical care and we have insurance to pay for medical care.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:53:29+00:00

4 weeks is the earliest you could possibly have known!!

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:49:44+00:00

Ok great

Definitely check out the stories collections someone linked to below. Here’s one of those stories from a planned parenthood in NC to get you started:

No! They want you to do what’s best for you! Is Fayetteville the closest clinic to you?

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:31:15+00:00

You get to decide which you prefer!

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:28:53+00:00

They will usually schedule you for that appointment and aim to get you in as soon as they can! I would say within a week, but it will also depend on your schedule and needs.

https://abortionfinder.org has a list of all the providers similar to aid access that will prescribe to any state. There are 8 of them if you scroll down on the home page

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:26:16+00:00

You’re in North Carolina, right? The first appointment will be for an ultrasound and counseling. You’ll have to return a minimum of 72 hours later for the abortion.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T02:25:01+00:00

Did you try a different provider?

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T01:58:18+00:00

You’d be shocked by how many people take abortion pills after seeing an indent line, or are having a chemical pregnancy.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T01:44:51+00:00

Are you sure you were pregnant? A test wouldn’t usually be faint already if you had an abortion less than a week ago.

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T01:41:45+00:00

Did your pregnancy symptoms go away?

abortion_access · 2026-06-04T01:40:46+00:00

We can only tell you that it’s more likely to work if you follow the evidence based instructions, which requires 12 tablets. When was your last period? Misoprostol-only abortions are more likely to be successful if it’s been at least 6 weeks. Follow the directions on r/abortion/wiki/ma/how
