Answer 1

Abortion Procedures
RU486, Mifepristone: within 4 to 7 weeks after LMP
Also known as the Abortion Pill, this medical abortion is used for women who are within 28 to 49 days after their last menstrual period. This procedure usually requires three office visits. The RU 486 or mifepristone pills are given to the woman who returns two days later for a second medication called misoprostol. The combination of these medications causes the uterus to expel the fetus.

Early Vacuum Aspiration: within 7 weeks after LMP
This surgical abortion is done early in the pregnancy up until 7 weeks after the woman's last menstrual period. The cervical muscle is stretched with dilators (metal rods) until the opening is wide enough to allow the abortion instruments to pass into the uterus. A hand held syringe is attached to tubing that is inserted into the uterus and the fetus is suctioned out.

Suction Curettage: within 6 to 14 weeks after LMP
In this procedure, the doctor opens the cervix with a dilator (a metal rod) or laminaria (thin sticks derived from plants and inserted several hours before the procedure). The doctor inserts tubing into the uterus and connects the tubing to a suction machine. The suction pulls the fetus' body apart and out of the uterus. One variation of this procedure is called Dilation and Curettage (D&C). In this method, the doctor may use a curette, a loop-shaped knife, to scrape the fetal parts out of the uterus.

Dilation and Evacuation (D&E): within 13 to 24 weeks after LMP
This surgical abortion is done during the second trimester of pregnancy. Because the developing fetus doubles in size between the thirteenth and fourteenth weeks of pregnancy, the body of the fetus is too large to be broken up by suction and will not pass through the suction tubing. In this procedure, the cervix must be opened wider than in a first trimester abortion. This is done by inserting laminaria a day or two before the abortion. After opening the cervix, the doctor pulls out the fetal parts with forceps. The fetus' skull is crushed to ease removal.

Dilation and Extraction (D&X): from 20 weeks after LMP to full-term
Also known as Partial-birth Abortion, this procedure takes three days. During the first two days, the cervix is dilated and medication is given for cramping. On the third day, the woman receives medication to start labor. After labor begins, the abortion doctor uses ultrasound to locate the baby's legs. Grasping a leg with forceps, the doctor delivers the baby up to the baby's head. Next, scissors are inserted into the base of the skull to create an opening. A suction catheter is placed into the opening to remove the skull contents. The skull collapses and the baby is removed.

Immediate Risks of Abortion
Induced abortion carries a risk of several side effects. These risks include abdominal pain and cramping, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. In most abortions, no serious complications occur. However, the risk of complications is about 1 out of every 100 early abortions and in about 1 out of every 50 later abortions. Such complications may include:

Heavy Bleeding - Some bleeding after abortion is normal. However, there is a risk of hemorrhage, especially if the uterine artery is torn. When this happens, a blood transfusion may be required.
Infection - There is a risk that bacteria may get into the uterus from an incomplete abortion resulting in infection. A serious infection may lead to persistent fever over several days and extended hospitalization.
Incomplete Abortion - There is a risk that some fetal parts may not be removed by the abortion. Bleeding and infection may occur. RU486 may fail in up to 1 out of every 20 cases.
Allergic Reaction to Drugs - There is a risk of an allergic reaction to the anesthesia used during abortion surgery. These risks include convulsions, heart attack and, in extreme cases, death.
Tearing of the Cervix - There is a risk that the cervix may be cut or torn by abortion instruments.
Scarring of the Uterine Lining - There is a risk that suction tubing, curettes, and other abortion instruments may cause permanent scarring of the uterine lining.
Perforation of the Uterus - There is a risk that the uterus may be punctured or torn by abortion instruments. The risk of this complication increases with the length of the pregnancy. If this occurs, major surgery, including a hysterectomy, may be required.
Damage to Internal Organs - When the uterus is punctured or torn, there is also a risk that damage will occur to nearby organs such as the bowel and bladder.
Death - In extreme cases, there is a risk of other physical complications from abortion including excessive bleeding, infection, organ damage from a perforated uterus, and adverse reactions to anesthesia may lead to death. This complication is very rare and occurs, on average, in less than 20 cases per year.
What Are Some of the Other Risks of Abortion?
Abortion may increase the risk of Breast Cancer
Medical experts are still researching and debating the linkage between abortion and breast cancer. However, a 1994 study in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found: "Among women who had been pregnant at least once, the risk of breast cancer in those who had experienced an induced abortion was 50% higher than among other women."

Here are other important facts:

Carrying a pregnancy to full term gives protection against breast cancer that does not occur if the pregnancy is aborted.
Abortion causes a sudden drop in estrogen levels that may make breast cells more susceptible to cancer.
Most studies conducted so far show a significant link between abortion and breast cancer.
Abortion May Effect Risk Levels in Future Pregnancies
Scarring or other injury during an abortion may prevent or place at risk future wanted pregnancies. The risk of miscarriage is greater for women who abort their first pregnancy.

Abortion May Increase the Risk of Emotional Problems
Some women experience strong negative emotions after abortion. Sometimes this occurs within days and sometimes it happens after many years. This psychological response is known as Post-Abortion Stress (PAS). Several factors that increase the risk of Post-Abortion Stress include: the woman's age, the abortion circumstances, the stage of pregnancy at which the abortion occurs, and the woman's religious beliefs.

Post-Abortion Stress Symptoms
Guilt
Anger
Anxiety
Depression
Suicidal Thoughts
Anniversary Grief
Flashbacks of Abortion
Sexual Dysfunction
Relationship Problems
Eating Disorders
Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Psychological Reactions
Spiritual Consequences
People have different understandings of God. Whatever your present beliefs may be, there is a spiritual side to abortion that deserves to be considered. Having an abortion may affect more than just your body and your mind -- it may have an impact on your relationship with God. What is God's desire for you in this situation? How does God see your unborn child? These are important questions to consider.

Know Your Options
You have the legal right to choose the outcome of your pregnancy. But real empowerment comes when you find the resources and inner strength necessary to make your best choice. Here are some other options.

Parenting
Choosing to continue your pregnancy and to parent is very challenging. But with the support of caring people, parenting classes, and other resources, many women find the help they need to make this choice.

Adoption
You may decide to place your child for adoption. Each year over 50,000 women in America make this choice. This loving decision is often made by women who first thought abortion was their only way out.

Help Is Available
Facing an unexpected pregnancy can seem overwhelming. That is why knowing where to go for help is important. Talk to someone you can trust - your partner, your parents, a pastor, a priest or perhaps a good friend. Also, the caring people at your pregnancy center are available to help you through this difficult time. To find a pregnancy center near you, call 1-800-395-HELP.

Answer 2

Having an abortion is less painful and has fewer risks than having a baby...especially if the baby is unwanted.

There are several ways of having an abortion. The way I'm familiar with is they insert a small stick into the opening of your cervix and that stick swells over a period of 24 - 48 hours enlarging the opening of the cervix.

Then you go in for a scheduled appointment and are given a little anesthetic. The doctor suctions out all contents of the cervix. You bleed for a couple of days but it is pretty much pain free if you are at peace with your decision.

If you have any doubt that what you are doing is wrong, then don't do it or you will have serious guilt feelings. Consider all options and by all means, don't do it if you feel it is wrong.

The people who have the worst side effects and report the most pain are the people who are staunch anti abortion advocates...

Those people report back that the process is painful, emotionally devestating and a horrible experience but that is only because they did something they thought was wrong. Don't do it if you think it is wrong.

Against abortion? Then don't have one!!!! If you believe it is okay to do, then don't let anyone change your mind about it. The pain you experience will only be reflected in the amount of guilt you feel.

I had an abortion and I'm very glad that I did. I made peace with myself and my unborn child before I did it and I'm convinced that the unborn baby is as peaceful about the situation as I am...

Its like I talked to the kid about it first and "we" made that choice. Its like the baby said, "OK, I understand." I feel that certainly and no one can take away that "conversation" I had with that child. I really made peace with the decision.

It sounds silly, but acknowledge the child, talk to it and see how you feel about it before you proceed. Don't do it if guilt is a factor.

I'd like to add that all of the fear tactics listed above are given my people who had an abortions against their beliefs...having an abortion is less dangerous and has fewer side effects than having a child.

People who give live births also suffer depression, guilt, anxiety, mental illness, excessive bleeding and even death. Don't let anyone fool you...child bearing is a difficult process anyway you chose. Don't let anyone scare you out of your own decision.

Any decision is only as scary as you make it. Guilt/fear and pain are related...no fear, no guilt will equal no pain. Go into this with a pure heart with any decision you make.

I went for a long hike on a mountain the day after and had quite a religious experience and heart purifying meditation. I've never had another abortion and don't intend to but that was where I was at then and I am okay with it. Whether or not you will be okay with it will be up to you.

Answer 3

I dont know how many weeks u are but I do now what they do. I would assume u are in your first trimester though. During this time the doctor will give u some medicine to dialate your cervix and when it is fully ready u will lay down in the room and they will insert a long tube with a sharp cutting edge at the tip. they will bring in this machine and turn it on. the doctor will take the tube and insert it into your uterus where ur baby lay and the machine will tear the baby to pieces and be sucked out into a container where they will later open and make sure all of the babys body parts are out of your body. u will get cramps and have bleeding,not to mention u may fall in a state of depression. many many women regret there decision and wish they could change it. knowing u are tearing your poor babys body apart from you is horrible. U may love this man but girl he does not love you in return, if he did he would not give u a choice to make such as this one, he is irresponsible and does not have a heart. Carry this baby for yourself and for the life of that baby. U do not need a man to raise a child, u can do it alone. If u have to give the baby up for adoption. there is soo much help nowdays that u can get to pay for the whole pregnancy,delivery and even formula and diapers. besides when u get bigger he will prob change his mind. dont kill your baby because of a careless man. besides,u know the baby will be able to feel them killing it,u want your the last minutes of your childs life to be in pain,knowing mommy did this? not worth it..good luck!

Answer 4

i had a termination 9 years ago i still cry now and feel emotionally guilty for what i did. I would suggest that you think real hard about what you are about to do i was 17 when i had mine and went through with it because my ex felt he wasnt ready to be a dad. Because i loved him i done what he wanted. After i did i couldnt forgive him and 4 years later split with him as i never looked at him the same again. I have now been trying to conceive for two years and 3 times its ended in miscarriage. i have endometriosis and pcos - medics are unaware of what causes these conditions but i put them down to the abortion. I was put to sleep and when i woke up it was like i was on a heavy period with period pains nothing more i felt fine within a couple a days. When i say i felt fine i did till 12 months down the line from this point i have suffered with depression and will never get over what i did. Think very hard before you do hun its a decision that stays with you forever. Best of luck x

Answer 5

Um you could bleed to death from hemorage or you could die of an infection if not every part of the baby gets out. basically what they do depends on how far along you are. They can either inject saline into the sac around the baby and burn it alive or they can blend the baby up like a milkshake and suck it out or they can tear it apart bit by bit and take it out one piece at a time. No matter what it isn't pretty or right. I've never had one but those are the risks and those are the ways they can do it. I know there are more ways but I think those few are enough to satisfy anyone's gross factor.

Answer 6

Abortion+Immaturity=Murder

No abortion+Responsibility sense=Life

Your mother+She didn't want you= You never got born.

Your mother+She loved you+Responsible= You

It doesn't mater how safe abortion can be for you, at the end somebody will be killed, an Innocent person will pay with his/her life for you cover a immature act. I hope you would open your eyes before you make another mistake and a million times worse.
Do you think that a man who wants you to abort your baby, that suppose to be the fruit of that love that the 2 of you are allegedly having, loves you? If a man or any other person isn't good to love a son or daudhter that man or person doesn't love no body. I prefer to work 2 jobs and bust my chops down for my kids than comit a crime. What you gonna do when this man leaves you in a future? And belive me he will. You stil having time to don't make the biggest mistake of your live for a person who doesn't deserves you. I know you'll never be alone if you decide to give the oppertunity to your baby as it was gave it to you. Don't summe your self to the many ignorants out there who have done that mistake and now they are alone an because the man they thought they were in love with left them any ways and now they are crying out for the baby the threw away and the chance of being loved and blessed. What can be better, a man who wants you to abort away your baby, or your baby kissing you, hughing you and telling you "I love you mommy"? How do you feel every time your older son tells you he loves you or gives you a kiss? Think on that and who deserves more.

Answer 7

They open your cervix, and either suck the baby out, or induce a period to kill the baby.

There are some risks, and the biggest long term effect is that you will never emotionally be the same again.

my cousin had one 15 years ago. She has three kids now, but still cries over the one she killed when she was 16.

Answer 9

Uterine fibroids are usually not dangerous, but can cause immense discomfort and lead to complications like anemia from heavy blood loss. In rare cases, they may cause complications that affect pregnancy.

In cases where there are no symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. However, proper diagnosis and treatment may be required if your symptoms are severe or causing complications. Along with conventional treatment, you can try some natural home remedies. Read here https://tr.im/GCAxo
