Abstract
Termination of pregnancy by means of "menstrual extraction" is a useful procedure for family physicians opting to offer this service to their patients. It is an easily performed procedure which, when compared to the presently available avenues for abortion, offers significant advantages in cost, diminished morbidity, and the opportunity for continuity of care by the primary physician. The procedure is successful in properly selected patients 99 percent of the time.Entities:
