Getting the Facts
First, know that abortion is illegal in Texas except in certain circumstances when a physician deems it necessary to save a woman’s life. This means that, in most cases, women cannot have an abortion in the state.
Additionally, if you are considering buying abortion pills online, know that distributors are not able to operate within the state or mail the drugs to Texas. This method also poses additional risks because the FDA cannot guarantee the safety or effectiveness of those drugs.
A woman who has an abortion (whether medical or surgical) cannot be held criminally or civilly liable for the procedure. However, when weighing your options, getting enough information is crucial to make a sound decision.
Your Next Steps
A positive pregnancy test alone doesn’t confirm a pregnancy. Before making a decision, an ultrasound is needed to verify critical information like whether your pregnancy is progressing, its location, and how far along you are. These details will help you determine your options.
We provide limited ultrasounds so you can equip yourself with the knowledge needed to make a confident decision about your pregnancy. This scan can also detect certain conditions (like miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy) that require medical treatment to protect your health.
Additionally, our staff offers confidential information on all your options. Learn about abortion, adoption, and parenting in a non-judgmental space. We’re here to help you make a confident decision.
