Fact Sheet Provides an Overview of Abortion Later in Pregnancy and
Policies to Regulate It
Abortions
occurring at or after 21 weeks gestational age are rare (1.4%) and difficult
to obtain, yet these abortions are subject to intense public debate in the
news, policy and the law. A new KFF fact sheet provides basic information about abortion
later in pregnancy in the US, including what it is, why patients may have an
abortion later in pregnancy, and the laws that regulate it. The fact sheet
addresses many misconceptions about abortion later in pregnancy by defining
key terms, outlining standard clinical practice, and explaining state
abortion regulations that place gestational limits on abortion or ban
clinicians from using certain medically-approved methods.
Filling
the need for trusted information on national health issues, the Kaiser Family Foundation is
a nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, California.
