THE HEALTH RIGHTS PROJECT

Can I get an abortion if I am a minor (under 18 years of age)?

Abortion is a healthcare service, and can be sought by all pregnant persons, including minors. Medical professionals cannot refuse to provide abortion services to anyone purely because of cause of conception, or the age of the pregnant person.

To undergo abortion, consent of the minor's parents or guardians is mandatory.
