Where to get an abortion in Udaipur?

Udaipur is a city in the Rajasthan state. For many, Rajasthan is equal to deserts! Udaipur however is not just about arid and dry deserts. Udaipur is also known as the City of Lakes. When you are in Udaipur it is almost like skip, hop and jump into a lake because the city has an extensive system of lakes in it!

Apart from being a hot spot tourist destination, Udaipur is also emerging as a high-budget wedding destination. Sophistication and elegance are hallmarks of all such destination weddings in Udaipur. Any person who has attended such weddings in Udaipur can witness the contrast between the have and have-nots because outside all the regality of these weddings, Udaipur shows that its people still have many unmet basic needs and rights.

Access to safe and legal abortion continues to be a challenge even to this day. Many women, especially unmarried women, put themselves in danger by approaching quacks for abortion. The need of the hour is not just information but also access to safe, legal and most importantly nonjudgemental abortion.

In this article, we bring to you some must-know information that will help you make informed decisions on getting a safe, legal and non judgemental abortion in Udaipur.

Before you delve into this article further, let us first and foremost reassure you that abortion in Udaipur is completely legal.

Legal things to remember while visiting clinics in Udaipur:

If you want an abortion, you are not doing anything illegal. It is totally legal under the MTP  (Medical Termination of Pregnancy) Act of 1971.  

Under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act 1971, any woman can get an abortion within 20 weeks of her pregnancy under the following circumstances:

1. If the continuation of the pregnancy would be a risk to the physical or mental health and well being of a woman 
2. If the foetus shows an abnormality in the scan and tests, and thus confirms that if it is born it would be severely handicapped. 

[Often, many women are not sure about the time duration of the pregnancy, as in they cannot say for sure, in which week of pregnancy they are in. Thus they are not able to make the right decision about which method of abortion is suited for them. There are different abortions for different weeks of pregnancy. You can chat with us on our Whatsapp Careline and we can help you assess in which week of pregnancy you are in and what are the options you have for abortion: ]

For abortion in clinics in Udaipur, these are some of the basic things you need to keep in mind:

For the first 8 weeks a woman can have a medical abortion

• In a medical abortion, you will be given certain medications to terminate the pregnancy.  
• The pill is extremely effective in 95% of cases. Taking the pill after 8 weeks of pregnancy can lead to an incomplete abortion.
• It is always important to follow up with your doctor when you develop complications following an abortion using medical abortion pills

After 8 weeks the safest method to get an abortion is by having a surgical abortion 

• Up to 12 weeks, the preferred method is Manual Vacuum Aspiration (MVA). This is a minor surgical procedure and does not require any overnight hospitalization. You can return home the same day after the procedure.
• Beyond 12 weeks, the surgical procedure might require you to be hospitalized overnight. 

The cost factor

Not all doctors are allowed to do an abortion. Under the MTP Act, only a Registered Medical Practioner is allowed to give an abortion. These are doctors who have undergone training to give an abortion. Also, not all hospitals and clinics are permitted to give abortions. Only those hospitals and clinics (government or private) which are registered as Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) centres can give an abortion. The cost for abortion varies from doctor to doctor in various private hospitals and clinics.

Getting psychological support while seeking an abortion

Getting an abortion can be an extremely challenging time for any woman, hence it is important for women to not only seek safe, legal abortion from a qualified doctor but also seek support for emotional health and well being.

Post-abortion care is important

Once the abortion is done, many women think the ordeal is over and thus there is no necessity to go back to the doctor. Even if the doctor has recommended coming back after a few days, many women opt out of going back to the doctor, thinking there is nothing more to abortion, now that it is all done. However, this is not a healthy choice. There are reasons why your doctor has asked you to come back after a few days. Post-abortion care can avoid a lot of complications for you.
