My wife is 15–20 days pregnant. Is medical termination of pregnancy safe?
During the first three months, abortion can be done either by surgical or medical method. Medical abortion is done by using medicine whereas surgical abortion is a procedure done by a doctor. When done by health care professionals, both medical and surgical abortions are generally very safe. An early abortion has lesser risk than a delayed one. Like any other medical procedure, there are some complications associated with medical abortion. However, serious complications are rare. If you are considering abortion, it is important that you see a gynecologist at the earliest.
