Early pregnancy abortion refers to the termination of a pregnancy during its initial stages, typically within the first trimester (up to 12 weeks of gestation). This can be done through medical or surgical methods. Women may choose to have an abortion for various reasons, including personal, health, or socioeconomic factors. It is essential to have access to safe and legal abortion services to ensure women's health and well-being.

  • Medical Abortion : This method involves taking medication, such as mifepristone and misoprostol, to end a pregnancy. It is typically used up to 8-9 weeks of pregnancy.
  • Surgical Abortion : This procedure involves the removal of the pregnancy tissue from the uterus. The most common methods are vacuum aspiration or dilation and evacuation (D&E).
  • Emotional and Physical Support : Access to counseling and post-abortion care is crucial to support women's emotional and physical health
