Abortion services in South East London
As one of the largest providers of sexual and reproductive healthcare in the UK, we offer both medical and surgical abortion services through our network of local clinics all over England. 98% of our abortion treatments in the UK are funded by the NHS. This means that there will be no cost to you for your abortion in London.
Medical abortion in London:
At MSI UK, we offer medical abortion care (sometimes called ‘abortion with pills’) up to 9 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy. The treatment involves taking two types of medicine to end the pregnancy.
We also offer at-home abortion services (telemedicine) in South East London, meaning that if you meet the safety criteria to allow for a medical abortion without a scan, the abortion pills can either be collected by you from your nearest clinic, or posted to your home address after your consultation.

Surgical abortion in London:
We also offer surgical abortion care up to 23 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy. The type of surgical abortion procedure we offer you will depend on how many weeks you have been pregnant, and your medical history. Your treatment type – and any questions you may have – will be discussed during a consultation with a health advisor that takes place before your treatment appointment.

Contraception
Following an abortion your fertility will return almost immediately. If you do not want to get pregnant after having an abortion it is important to have a contraceptive method in place as soon as possible. As part of your abortion treatment, you will be offered a range of contraceptive methods, and we’ll be there to advise and talk through your options with you.

These clinics are available to people in Camden, Islington, Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham, and offer the fitting and removal of the IUD and IUS (contraceptive coils) and the contraceptive implant.
