Abortion in 17th week
I want to know can we abort our baby in 5 months, is yes what safe procedure, if no what complications might be there for both baby and mother
Abortion at 5 months is not at all a safe procedure. In fact as per the MTP ACT , an abortion at 5 months is permitted with so many riders. Please don't take it lightly.
Biggest complication is failure of procedure to achieve an abortion. Then you may need Abdominal operation (major surgery) .
It can lead even to the death of the mother.
