An unplanned pregnancy can be terrifying. Your whole world might have turned upside down, and so many different resources are out there telling you what to do or not do.
You have options, but what are they, and what do they look like for you?
Is Abortion for Me?
The decision to end a viable pregnancy with an elective abortion is highly personal. Typically, women choose to have an abortion because they feel that they are unable to grow their family right now because of their current situation or lifestyle.
It’s crucial to speak with a trusted medical provider or pregnancy center to get the answers to your questions in a pressure-free environment. This will bring the clarity and confidence you need to make the best decision for your health and well-being.
Before having any medical treatment or procedure, it is also essential to complete a medical assessment:
- Have a physical exam to fully understand your health.
- Provide a full report of your medical history and list any current conditions.
- Take a medical-grade pregnancy test and an ultrasound to confirm you are pregnant, and make sure it is not ectopic (which cannot be treated with a medical abortion).
- Speak with a physician or pregnancy center to understand the potential risks, complications, and available options.
Is Adoption for Me?
Adoption is also a personal decision and can be both a sweet and sour experience. It takes courage because a woman who selects adoption knows it is a beautiful but often challenging experience.
A woman who chooses adoption gives themselves the freedom they want or need and offers a hopeful couple the opportunity to grow and complete their family.
The best part: you are in control. From selecting the couple to deciding how much connection (if any) you want to have with the child after adoption, you set the terms.
