A member asked:
I am a mother of four considering abortion.but i have protein s deficiency and im iron deficiency anemic, what are the risks. is my life at risk?

Abortion: Your medical problems increase your risk for pregnancy. Terminating a pregnancy early is safer than continuing the pregnancy to term. A first trimester termination has less risk than delivering a baby at term. Think through your options carefully. You can either have the baby with appropriate care, or you can end the pregnancy. Its up to you.
