Abortion / MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy)

Abortion / MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy)

MTP (Medical Termination of Pregnancy) is a legal and safe procedure to end a pregnancy using medication or surgery, based on gestational age and individual health needs. As per the MTP Act in India, abortion is permitted up to 24 weeks under specific conditions, with full assurance of privacy and safety. At our clinic, we offer confidential, compassionate abortion care that prioritizes your physical and emotional well-being throughout the process.
