Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
You can safely undergo abortion by using pills if your pregnancy is less than 10 weeks, but under medical supervision.
If it is beyond 10 weeks, pregnancy needs to be terminated by surgical procedure. Surgery is relatively safe when performed properly, but carries certain risk at all ages.
Kindly adopt to the one which would suit you.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
