6 Things to Know Before Considering an Abortion
4. Your age is important when you are planning an abortion
Doctors do not advice abortion for women after a certain age, especially if it is their first pregnancy and if they are planning to have kids in the future. Think through your decision carefully before going for an abortion in such cases.
5. Think if you are emotionally prepared for an abortion
An abortion can leave a lot of mental scars on you even if you think you are ready. It can be a pretty traumatic decision and can play a lot on your emotions. So have a lot of support if you have decided to go ahead with it.
6. Check to see if it’s a normal pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy
Get a test or a scan done with your doctor to see if yours is a normal pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy. Do not pop pills and try to get an abortion by yourself. A botched up job or a home job is like playing with your life.
Talk to people who are close to you and try to have the baby as much as you can. Only have an abortion when you think you cannot raise the baby properly or if having a bay is dangerous to your health.
