Access to abortion is a fundamental human right and a basic healthcare. If you live in a country where access to abortion is restricted, you can get abortion pills through Women on Web.

Abortion on request is not authorized. It is permitted up to 24 weeks in cases of rape, incest, intellectual or cognitive disability of the woman, if the woman's spouse suffers from any eugenic or genetic mental disability, physical disease or contagious disease prescribed by Presidential Decree, if the pregnancy endangers the woman or person's health or where the maintenance of pregnancy severely injures or might injure the health of the pregnant. It is also permitted in case of fetal impairment. For this case, no limitation regarding the lengths of pregnancy is mentioned in the legal text.

A married person needs spousal consent to proceed with their abortion request.
Medical practitioners and providers have the right to refuse abortion services based on personal beliefs. However, medical practitioners and providers are obligated to refer individuals to another provider if they refuse service. So-called conscientious objection cannot be practiced if the life of the woman or pregnant person is at risk.

Despite abortion being permitted, abortion pills are not registered and an abortion with pills might not be available.

Mifepristone is not officially registered by the country’s pharmaceutical authority.

There is currently no data available on whether or not Misoprostol is registered by the country’s pharmaceutical authority.
