Is it legal to have aN abortion in michigan?

While third-trimester abortions are legal in Michigan, not every abortion clinic will provide them. Late-term abortions are dangerous, expensive, and traumatic. Most abortion providers will only perform an abortion up to 20 or 24 weeks of pregnancy.  

It is also important to note that the abortion pill is still not available after 10 weeks of pregnancy. This procedure is only FDA-approved for use within the first 70 days of pregnancy, regardless of state laws. It is ineffective if used beyond the timeframe. 

A decision to abort is not one to take lightly. Before you decide, make sure you are as informed as possible and have received an ultrasound scan. An ultrasound will tell you your gestational age (how far along you are), the location of your pregnancy (whether or not it’s ectopic), and if it’s progressing normally or if you have miscarried.

While an ultrasound is not required by law, it is highly recommended. Schedule an appointment at The Oxford Pregnancy Center for a free ultrasound and to ask any questions you may have about abortion procedures, abortion laws, or your pregnancy.
