Family Planning Clinic
Family Planning Clinic
U-M Health remains dedicated to providing our patients, families and communities with specialized lifesaving and lifechanging reproductive health care, including abortion.
In the months since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, our patients faced uncertainty about whether they would be able to continue to turn to University of Michigan Health for all of their reproductive healthcare needs. With the passage of Proposal 3 we can now assure all people who need our services that we will be there for them.
Our Approach
Our U-M Health team is specially trained to provide reproductive health services to patients with underlying medical conditions, including serious ones. We also can help patients determine if they may qualify for funding support for family planning services.
Patient safety and well-being are and remain our highest priorities, and we are devoted to providing high-quality, safe and compassionate care across all reproductive health needs.
Services
We offer our patients the following services:
All forms of contraception other than vasectomy, including for patients with chronic medical diseases or medical conditions that make choosing the right contraceptive method more complex
Treatment for patients who have had a miscarriage, including expectant (“watchful waiting”) management, treatment with medications for abortion, in-clinic and operating room uterine aspiration (“D+C”) procedures, and uterine evacuation (D&E) for second trimester pregnancy loss.
Pregnancy options counseling, including for patients with underlying medical issues or couples dealing with abnormal, unexpected or undesired pregnancies
Pregnancy termination with medications, surgical procedures and labor induction for patients referred for care. Many of the patients we see for abortion care at U-M Health are diagnosed with a problem in their pregnancy, including fetal genetic or other diagnoses; experience complications that make ongoing pregnancy and giving birth dangerous; or have a serious underlying medical issue that requires hospital-level care. We may also be able to offer first trimester medication abortion in some of our outpatient clinics. For other abortion care services, you can arrange to be seen at a range of local abortion care centers including Planned Parenthood of Michigan’s Ann Arbor Health Center and Northland Family Planning. At both centers, there are some providers who trained at U-M as well as learners who are currently in training. Planned Parenthood of Michigan also has many other health centers across the state that can assist if you are seeking in-clinic and medication abortion care, including telemedicine medication abortion for some eligible patients.
Virtual care for patients wishing to discuss options for reducing pain during contraceptive procedures (IUD insertion/removal).
