The issue of abortion is very controversial. There are many opinions about it that are widely discussed. People have many possible ideas about abortion based on their faith and morals. Most women who are pregnant and who miscarry are not given all the facts. Their doctors should inform them of the extremely serious side effects that can result from abortion. Abortions cause women physical and mental side effects that can cause them great pain, complications and even death. But what is abortion? Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. Abortion procedures change depending on the stage of pregnancy. There are four main procedures that women follow when they have an abortion. One is early medical abortion, which usually occurs at 0 to 9 weeks; this method is also known as the abortion pill but this description is not very accurate, as it does not simply involve taking a pill. The next step is vacuum aspiration abortion, which occurs at 5 to 15 weeks. Vacuum suction simply means suction. The next method is called early surgical dilation and evacuation, which lasts 15 to 19 weeks. After the woman is given a light general anesthesia, the doctor gently stretches the passage through the cervix until it is wide enough to use narrow forceps to remove most of the contents of the uterus. Then a tube connected to a vacuum pump is used to remove any remaining tissue. The final step is two-stage surgical abortion or medical induction, which occurs between 20 and 24 weeks. During a medical induction, the fetus's heart is stopped and then the doctor uses drugs to induce premature labor. A surgical two... middle of paper... for you and the baby you are carrying. Whether it's pro-life or pro-choice. Pro-choice comes with many packages like regret, the child they are carrying is a human being and killing that child can cause physical and emotional trauma and then again, pro-life comes with a lot of responsibility. But abortion is not a light topic and more people should be aware of what is at stake, and once it's done, it's over and there's time to take it back. The best solution is to carry the baby to term, and if they cannot care for the baby, give the baby up for adoption. Many people would be delighted to have a child and the woman can provide them with that happiness. Women should think long and hard about their decision to have an abortion and realize that the best solution is to give life to that beautiful child they have been blessed with. He's a child, not a choice.
