Where to Get an Abortion If I Live in the United States?
While the fight for legal abortion is advancing in many other countries, the United States has regressed five decades by overturning the “Roe v. Wade” ruling. As you may know, this ruling protected the right to abortion at the federal level since 1973.
With this Supreme Court decision in 2022, many states have implemented strict restrictions or total bans on abortion, limiting access to safe and legal procedures for those in need. Following this event, many people have had to seek alternatives outside the United States to access reproductive health services and make decisions about their future.

Options for Legal and Safe Abortion
The two main procedures recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the safe termination of a pregnancy are medication abortion and surgical abortion. Both are safe and effective, but one may be more suitable for you depending on the length of your pregnancy and your medical history.
1.Medication Abortion (Mifepristone and Misoprostol): If you are less than 10 weeks pregnant, edication abortion may be a suitable option for you. This procedure involves taking two medications, mifepristone and misoprostol, which work together to safely terminate the pregnancy. Generally, you can take these pills at home, under the guidance of a healthcare professional, or start your process at a legal abortion clinic and continue from a safe space for you. The process is similar to a miscarriage, comparable to a heavy menstrual period, with bleeding and possible cramps.
2.Surgical Abortion (Manual Vacuum Aspiration – MVA): The MVA is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed at a legal abortion clinic by specialized medical personnel. It is a quick procedure, lasting 15 minutes, and is very safe. It involves removing the pregnancy from the uterus through suction, and you can resume your activities the same day. If you are traveling, the MVA is the most suitable procedure as it is straightforward and allows you to return to your activities the same day.
