I know many people are against it but now I am looking for methods of abortion. I am 15 and I am too young to have a baby and put it up for adoption. I did use a condom and it was my first time. Are there any safe non-surgical ways or medications that are available? I'm sorry to others who already answered the question but I meant to write non-surgical. I know that a non-medical way to abort a baby is dangerous and I wouldn't do it. I'm sorry for the error!

Why do you feel that you are too young to have a baby and give it up for adoption? There have been many teenagers your age you have chosen life rather than abortion. The fact of the matter is that you had sex and whether or not you wanted it or not, you got pregnant. Now you have to deal with the consequences. You can honestly tell me that you would rather kill your baby than give your precious little girl or adorable little boy a chance for a life of happiness? You really need to own up to your mistake rather than taking it out on your baby. There are hundreds of couples out there who would jump at the chance of being able to adopt your baby.
My wife and I met almost eleven years ago. We started dating six months after we met and got married four months after we started dating. November 4th was our 10 year anniversary. From day one the thing we both had on our minds and the one thing we agreed on was wanting to have children. After being married about a year and a half we still had no baby. My wife started going to a state women's hospital to see why she had not gotten pregnant. The first thing they did to her was a dye-tube test where they injected dye into her to see if her tubes were blocked. No blockage, but my wife went through excruciating pain to have this precedure (many people relate the pain to giving birth) and was in severe pain after the procedure for several days. The doctors put her on fertility drugs and we tried that for about six months or so. To take fertility drugs you have to take these pills during your period. These pills cause your system to go on overload and your period systems are magnified. She did that for several months. After trying to have a baby for about three years we decided to take a break and became certified foster parents. Over a three-year period we had 6 children in our home, one of which stayed with us for 15 months. This only served to intensify our need to be parents. We decided to stop fostering for a while and start trying to have a baby again. Little did I know at this point that the fertility drugs my wife had taken had caused one of her ovaries to go into overdrive mode. Every month when she ovulated she would have severe pains. My wife went through this every month for several years before she would even tell me about it because she wanted a baby that bad. She started seeing an obgyn doctor that specialized in infertility. He did a procedure caused a laproscope where he cut into her belly, inflated her insides with a gas, and used a scope to look around and hopefully find some answers as to why she had not been able to get pregnant. The doctor found some scarred tissue and a little sign of endometriosis. He did his best to correct these issues in hopes that she would get pregnant. He then prescribed her fertility drugs and we started again. After a few months passed my wife finally told me about her pains which at this point had grown to severe inhibilitating pains. The doctor did another laproscopic surgery and came to the conclusion that it was due to the scarred tissue. He told us the only way to stop the pain was to have a hysterectomy. My wife wanted children so badly, she decided to continue on trying to have a baby. A few months after that she ended up having to have one of her ovaries and tubes removed for medical reasons. It was after this surgery that her doctor found some tissue from a procedural scan that he thought might be cancer. My wife's options were to have a biopsy or a hysterectomy. She wanted a baby so bad that she chose the biopsy. Results: no cancer. She was still in pain, but she wanted a baby so bad she again opted out for the surgery. The doctor gave us 6 months to have a baby and told us that if we didn't have baby by then, we probably wouldn't be able to due to the fact that the endometriosis was getting worse and the scarred tissue was not allowing her uterus to "float" like it should. We tried to have a baby for a few more months and then my wife, after enduring pain that I can only imagine for nearly 6 years decided to have the hysterectomy. But our story does not end there. We are presently trying to adopt a baby, so hopefully one day we will finally have our baby.
I hope my story has given you reason to reconsider giving your baby up for adoption. I have included a link that you can go to for more information about abortion and adoption. Take care and know that you are in my prayers.

Even though I am against abortion. If you feel this is the right decision for you the only 'safe" way is to go to an abortion clinic. That may not be safe but the safest way. Even though you are probaly stressed as I can understand, I had a baby very young too, talk to someone before you make any decisons. dont do anything crazy they you may end up risking your own health or life for. There are plenty of options. You can do adoption. You are not to young. Have you talk to your parents will they help you? Even though it may be a scary topic after they get over the innitial shock they will probaly be the best source of help. If not maybe a close adult friend, or teacher. Maybe planned parenthood if you have one in your area. Don't give up just yet. Good Luck. Even though it maybe hard you can do it! I did!

No! and the smartest thing that you could do is not have an abortion,let someone take care of the baby and love himor her,there are so many people out there that would love to have a ababy and would even pay money and all your doctor bills just to have the baby,there are no easy way to have an abortion,you are still ending the child's life,I am not against abortion if a woman has been raped but if they are willing to have sex and are fully aware of the consequences that may happen during this time then I think that they should at least have the heart to provide the child a life with someone that will truely love it.That baby came in this world by a passionate moment,it did not ask to be brought into this world,but know that it is growing inside you, give it and someone else a chance to be parents that cant due to not being fertile enough or etc,there is people out there that are reaching out begging to be parents, they just are waiting for the perfect opportunity-GOOD-LUCK.

Sorry.. there is no other way to do it without risking complications and infection. How far along are you? A lot of people on here are going to give you alot of crap for this, but don't let them influence you. I believe that it is your choice and that you are too young to have a baby. It is a good thing that you are mature enough to know this...however, I would suggest that you be mature enough next time to know that having sex, wether protected or not...can cause pregnancy.
An abortion is a difficult thing to go through, but it is not as bad as some poeple make it sound.
If adoption is out of the question...then unfortunately abortion is your only route.
i wish you the best of luck and i hope that everything turns out ok.

And would it be illegal to tell people on this forum how to self abort? Hmmmm.....
Tell Mom. If you are going to take the life of your unborn child, then you should at least do it in a sterile environment with professionals who won't butcher you or make you sick.
And yeah, you could have the baby and give it away to someone who is old enough, mentally healthy/mature enough and has enough money to be a good parent to it. You are a child and its true you shouldn't raise a kid at your age. But you're not too young to give it up for adoption. You don't know how to even take care of yourself yet, but that's okay, you're just a kid.
If you choose not to be abstinent in the future, and if you choose not to wait until you're married, then please try to remember, when using condoms, they must be placed *on the penis*. Pinch the tip before rolling it on to leave space in the end for the sperm, and always use water based lubricant, preferrably with spermicide. Condoms VERY RARELY FAIL, when used properly. And you would be surprised at how many adults fail to use them properly, and then complain that they aren't reliable. Sheesh.
EDIT:
I forgot to add, tell your little boyfirends to buy regular size, not MAGNUM. Or better yet, buy them yourself. That way, you can ensure that he hasn't cut a hole in the tip, and that they are not past expiration date. I saw a 12 year old 5' tall boy buy a magnum condom once. There are few men who need magnum condoms, and if the thing doesn't fit right, you are more likely to get pregnant.

You might be too young to RAISE a baby, but you aren't too young to have one. Is an abortion something you want to live with for the rest of your life? My cousin had a baby at 16 and kept it, and she wouldn't have it any other way. I hate to preach, but if you think you're too young for the responsibilities a baby entails, you're too young to have sex. Too late for that, so...if you can't deal with a somewhat altered 9 months of your life (it would take you less than a year to make sure your child has a life), go see the doctor. Don't be stupid and risk a) dying or b)damaging your baby and it being too late for a medical abortion.

Nope no medications you can take, nothin non medical you can do to have an abortion. You HAVE to go to a doctor and have an abortion. Maybe you should have thought about this BEFORE you decided to have sex in the first place. Obviously you weren't ready then to have sex and you're still not ready. Being ready means you are willing to be responsible for ALL of the consqeunces that come with having sex...one of those consequences is pregnancy.

You can't use a "home-remedy" abortion. My sister was pregnant and somehow the child did not survive. I will not explain how, for fear you would use it. She did not seek medical treatment due to her young age (16) and her insides started to rot. Now she can't have children, and the infection has to be controlled with medications constantly. Her periods are so bad due to the damage in her uterus that she has to take yet another medication for that. and my parents found out anyway, and she had to deal with how they felt about her poor decision making both in what happened and what she chose to do about it.
She may die from it.
Your actions can hurt more than just you.
If she had told her family we would have helped her!
Tell your parents, or go to planned parenthood!

There is nothing you can do safely that will not require some medical assistance.
It's too late for Plan B, since you already know you're pregnant.
At this point, if you're going to terminate the pregnancy, your only options are Mifeprex (RU-486) or a surgical abortion.
People will tell you all kinds of crazy "home remedies," but most of them don't work, are dangerous to you, or both.

whatever happened to using birth control??? Or sex education in school? Or heck! Even ABSTINENCE! Oooh...even better, what happened to taking responsibilities for your actions???
Self-performed abortions are a good way to kill yourself. You could end up with some crazy infection and end up dying. If you absolutely think you must have an abortion, go to a clinic somewhere and have it done by medical professionals. Just remember that while you are ending a precious, innocent life, there are MILLIONS of women out there trying to have children of their own and cannot for whatever reasons...this is one more child that could have a happy home with one of those families...

If you do not choose to keep this baby or give it up for adoption then your only choice is go to an abortion clinic and do it the safe way. I will not tell you any way to make it happen without a doctor.
