Abortion: Pros and Cons
Pregnant – and completely unplanned. Do I want to continue this pregnancy, and am I able to? Who can I talk to about this? And how do I reach a decision I can live with? You can find guidance and tips on making a decision about the pros and cons of abortion here.
Abortion Costs
The costs of the termination of a pregnancy are covered in many cases by the statutory health insurance or by the federal state. Whether this applies to you, what you need to do, and in which cases you have to cover the costs yourself – here is a first overview.
Adoption & Confidential Birth (Vertrauliche Geburt)
You do not wish to raise a child – or another child – but abortion is not an option for you? One alternative may be to place the child for adoption after birth. In cases of particular hardship, a confidential birth (Vertrauliche Geburt) is available. Pregnancy counselling can support you on this path as well.
