Abortion
Caring for You, Always
It is appropriately said that every child should be a wanted child, however, sometimes a pregnancy may not be wanted. In this case, one may seek an abortion. Abortion is legal, provided it is carried out within the legal permits. An abortion can be done only up to 20 weeks of pregnancy.
Under the terms of the abortion act, doctors can agree to an abortion if they believe one or more of the following:
- Continuing with the pregnancy would involve more risk to your physical or mental health than terminating it.
- Continuing with the pregnancy would involve a greater risk to your life than terminating it.
- Any existing children of yours were likely to suffer if the pregnancy continued.
- There is a substantial risk that the child would be deformed or seriously handicapped.
If one desires termination of pregnancy then one should seek an abortion as early as possible as earlier it is done in the pregnancy safer it is.
The method of termination will depend on the weeks of gestation.
