I have just done a pregnancy test and it is positive with a reading of 1 to 2 weeks pregnant.

For a number of reasons I am considering a termination, can anyone tell me what the options are? Do I have to have a medical procedure in hospital or is there a pill or something I can take.

I am such a mess and I need to know what my options are.

Thank you.

You can take 2 tablets I think up to around 9ish weeks.
If you are doing it soon as you are 100% sure, it is tablets.

I would recommend contacting bpas, they will be able to offer you advice and explain your options to you.

well done eldonave,at least someone knows how to do the links! (same site mankymummymoo)

Thank you so much for your responses. Its a relief to know I have some time to think things through, I thought perhaps I would have to make a decision in the next few days.

Thank you.

You can just visit your GP who will do another pregnancy test and then discuss your options with you and be able to refer you for a termination if that's what you decide to do.

Nothing more to add except sorry you are in this difficult situation. Hope you get the help you need.
