There are two abortion options. Medication Abortion and Vacuum Aspiration.
There are three steps in the Medication Abortion.
First the clinician would give your girlfriend a dose of either mifepristone or methotrexate at the clinic. Then she would take a second medication — misoprostol. That she would either take at the clinic or at home. After taking the misoprostol she will most likely start to bleed heavily within hours or days. This is the abortion. After two weeks, she will return to your clinician for a follow-up visit to confirm that she is no longer pregnant.
Vacuum aspiration empties the uterus with gentle suction of a hand-held suction device or with machine-operated suction. A follow-up appointment needs to be made for two to four weeks after your vacuum aspiration or D&E abortion.
I hope that information helps. However, she is the only one that gets to make this decsion. It is her body and she is the one that will have to live with the consequences. In no way should you insist or concerce in any way. Also, when she goes in to her appointment, they will ask her if she doing this of her own freewill. If shes no, or they suspect that she is being forced, they will not preform the abortion. Do not attempt to abort the baby at home, she could die from complications. An abortion (even a medicine one) can only be performed under a doctors care. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

I have been there, twice, and trust me, there is no medication you can take that will be guaranteed to work. From experience the earliest that they prefer to do it is 5 weeks.
The first time it was with the "gentle suctioning method" as referred to in an answer above. It is BLOODY SORE.
The second time I took the pills, but when I went to be checked out the next day it hadn't worked and I still had to have the suction method.
Apparently for later on in the pregnancy is when they use the D & C method, not when its so early.
Please make sure that this is what she really wants because it may seem like a quick and easier (albeit painful) procedure, she will never forget it.

Doctors prefer to do abortions between 6 - 8 weeks. Abortions need to be done as an out-patient or office procedure. If you are referring to taking "the morning after" pill to abort pregnancy, you are too late for this option at 2 weeks. The best thing to do is contact a doctor or clinic or confidential pregnancy advise center and set up an appointment.

She needs to get to a doctor right away to confirm pregnancy and to discuss her options as to how she wants to proceed with the pregnancy. IMO, you both should act fast if abortion is an option and not wait past the first trimester (12 weeks). Both of you should consider talking to her mother and perhaps a counselor or spiritual adviser to help her during this time. I would think that the emotional ramifications would be very difficult. Act fast and get her to a doctor! Good luck!

If she's only 2 weeks, then you have a great window of opportunity to have an abortion. Schedule an appointment with a local Planned Parenthood, or her family doctor to discuss options. If abortion is the right choice for y'all, they'll make sure everything happens in the appropriate time frame.

Dont take anything. Not for the whole you will regret it thing, for the fact that there is no safe way to orally take something to get rid of the baby. It can cause huge complications for her, and I am assuming you dont want that.
To get an abortion, you go to the clinic before about 12 weeks and its like a vaccume its a lot safer for her than anything else, but please think about it long and hard, you may not regret it, but I daresay she will.

I question your age, because you don't seem to spell very well, but just so you know, you have to have parental consent before any abortion can be done, but i think the deadline is 12 weeks, if im not mistaken, consult planned parent hood for other options also.

go see a doctor. the earlier you do the abortion the better.
do not do anything on your own because you can harm your girlfriend and she may not be able to get pregnant again when she is older and ready for a kid
