Hi there, In the UK 2 doctors have to sign a form to say that terminating the pregnancy is right for you, don't worry as that is not usually an issue. At 16 ys old there is no way that your parents would be told.
You need an appointment with your GP as soon as you get a positive test. He can then refer you to a gynaecologist who will sign the second part of the form and carry out the termination. If done in the early weeks then it can be performed by taking tablets...in other words go as soon as you know.
If you can't face going to the family doctor then you can go to a family planning clinic as they can refer you if necessary.
Take care and good luck sweetie.

Why do not try to think just for few days before you can take any decision??? Did you know that you might risk not getting pregnant later, when you will desire it?"Baby , think twice"(Celine Dion)If your father loves you, he will love the baby as well...Can you imagine him looking after your little baby...he will become a Grandad...how lovely!!!You can still carry on with your college homework, and so on...You just need another person to help you to cope with...Do not keep this news just for yourself.Ask him for example:"Daddy ,when I was a baby did I sleep well,did I eat well etc???"

go to your doctor and DON'T let them fob you off. Your choice, not theirs.

I really suggest you talk to your parents about this. You could be making an incredibly huge mistake. Pregnancy and abortion are very hard situations. You need your parents along side you. They would know what to do and as they are parents, they will have gone through pregnancy and could help with your decision. But ultimately, it is your decision what happens to the baby.

I don't know if you can get one without your parents permission but you need to speak to your G.P. for abortion advice.
I'm a mum of two teenagers, 1 is a daughter & I would hate to think of her going through an abortion without support. If you are pregnant please talk to your parents & let them help you with whatever choice you make. Yes, they may well go ballistic, (I was 17 when I got pregnant so I do understand how you feel.) but you need them right now. And they may surprise you & be a lot more understanding than you think. I would be disapointed if my daughter was pregnant but even more sad if she went through an abortion alone. Talk to your Mum & Dad.

And it goes without saying really, if you're going to have sex again please use condoms as well as the pill in future.

I really dont agree with abortion but thats me you have your resons for wanting one and that is tottally up to you no one else. Im not sure where you would go but i would first go see your doctor. and as you are 16 there is no reson your mum or dad should no. if you are only a few weeks there is a pill you can get ow which when taken brings a misscarage on but im sorry to say if your over 11weeks your have to go to hospital and they will give you a drug to make you go into labour and you will have to go though labour pain and all sorry to say.
But i would gosee your doctor hunny and see what he says and dont put it off the sooner the better. andif you want to talk my email address is sirmayah@hotmail.co.uk im 23 and have 3 children i fell pregnant with my first at 17 and had him at 18 then 2 year later i had my little girl she and i had y 3rd just 7 months ago now.
anyways babes i wish you all the beat of luck in whatevr you decided take care.. and just think you havee= not done a test yet so there might not b anythink to worry about xxxx

Then maybe you should of kept your legs closed love, what the hell is the matter with you. If you don't want comments, or opinions then don't come on here asking questions like this because your just opening yourself up to abuse, which after your additional comment you deserve. Shame on you for being so heartless!! Speak to your parents and next time think about it before you jump in to bed without birth control!

you will be lucky to get it done without your parents knowing .but i dont believe in abortions anyway you should have thought of that before doing anything

i am sorry u feel that way about a baby i got pregnant at 16 n have the most loving baby who loves me regardless if u r not ready for a baby keep ur f- ing legs closed hopefully u r not pregnant good luck to u

I can't believe all of you people are condemning this girl for asking a simple question, that is hardly likely to make her ask for advice or help in the future, as I'm sure she's scared enough. So, to all of the people telling this girl to "keep your legs closed", or how "evil" she is, you should be ashamed.

Having an abortion needs to be an informed decision, and you need to check out the laws in your country concerning your age and parental consent for an abortion.

At 16 in the UK you can have an abortion without your parents knowing if two doctors think you know what you are doing and that it is the best thing for you to do. You have to see your GP first and he/she will sort it for you.

However, and I'm not judging, once you are pregnant you have a living being inside you. It is not just a bunch of cells, it is a baby. I have loads more to say on the subject but at the moment you don't want to hear it. If you change your mind then I'd love to help.

Take care

ignore the stupid people telling you to keep it...
your sensible and know it would ruin your life..
go to the NHS as soon as possible if you are, and you can take the abortion pill for free there.
Don't go private, as it is expensive.
Good luck and dont worry about them, your not a bad person!! x

Go to your doctor now!

Honestly, do not listen to what everyone else has been saying. First off, remember it is your choice and you can do what you want with your body and choices in life. However, since you're 16, you might need parental consent to get the abortion. Also I'm from the U.S. so I'm not sure if it is different in the UK. I would say google it to see if there are any in your area. Good luck to you.

I am not going to judge you, all i will say is that the sooner you for certain the easier it will be for you to deal with. In the UK at 16 you are legally able to consent to treatment without your parents knowing, however they maybe able to support you. If you do go ahead with an abortion, youwill need some support and even thought they will probably be upset and angry at first you will still be their daughter and I suspect they will stand by you.
However, go to the GP and find out for certain, they can arrange everything for you. If you are not comfortable going to the GP then look up in the directory your local Brook Advisory Centre, which specialises in helping young people like yourself, in situations like this.
Good luck.

First off, you need to wait and get the result of your pregnancy test (D'oh, really? LOL)
If it is positive, then you need to get an appointment with your doctor and the sooner the better.
I think you've thought this through and you don't need to listen to anyone other than yourself sweetie.
At 16, your parents don't have to be told, but I wonder how you would keep it from them. Terminations are usually done as day case procedures now, so you would be in and out the same day.
But it's a hard thing to go through on your own. If you cannot tell your parents for whatever reason, the please confide in someone. Don't go through it alone.
Take care.

You need to see your GP, as you're16 your parents wont be told but I would talk to them before you have a termination just to get their emotional support, if you realy cant talk to them TALK TO SOMEONE you need support. even though its the right decision for you you may still need a shoulder to cry on at some point and you need someone there for when you come home. Be strong and make the decision that is right for you and no one else.

right im gonna say exactly wot i think, i understand that ur worried about whether or not ur pregnant but u should of used contreception in the first place and the pill to be doubley safe then u wouldnt be in this situation. there are loads of people in the world who cannot have children and r desperate for them and there are silly teenagers that go around sha**in for the sake of it and then end up gettin pregnant and expect to just get out of it by havin an abortion and not thinkin twice about it, and then they still dont learn from that and carry on as they did before. if u r pregnant u should deal with it and have the baby as its not the baby's fault that u were so irresponsible. ur parents probably will kill u but do u blame them?? no doubt a baby isnt right to have at ur age but how is havin sex either?? knowin u could get pregnant if u dont use protection. i dont see why kids should get abortions free on the NHS left right and centre just because they have either got drunk and been stupid or just because they want to have sex and dont think about the outcome. and a baby isnt a 'ball of cells' its a livin bein as soon as its conceived, wot a heartless thing for u to say. so basically u made ur bed lie in it so to speak!! im not judgin u but as someone else said, u shouldnt expect to ask a question like that and sayin how old u r and for people not to have opinions like they have. not bein funny but ur just a child urself, try thinkin before u act and one day u mite grow up.

Oh my gosh! Please dont get an abortion! Think about it.. there is a living life inside of you. A little baby. God gifted you with this, now take advantage. Please dont have an abortion

please do not do this.
i know you arent looking for answers like this, but it just breaks my heart that you are going to follow through with an abortion!!
you realize that if you have an abortion you are murdering an innocent child. how could you ever live with yourself?

i know its hard, but you truly cannot cause harm to the child inside you that hasnt even had a chance to live. If you arent strong enough to raise a child, then put it up for adoption. Every baby needs love, and a chance.
please do not take the chance for a life away from this baby.
