Details on Abortions (Just curious, doesn't apply to me!)?!


Question: Details on Abortions (Just curious, doesn't apply to me!)!?
If you were to go for an abortion, do they have to know who impregnated you!? Or do they simply base it off of you and your wants!?

P!.S!. Not pregnant, not aborting!. A question that was inspired from a movie!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
No, when seeking an abortion in the U!.S!. a woman is not required to provide any information about the man responsible for the pregnancy!. Medical records are strictly confidential!. A woman generally receives pre-abortion counseling (some states regulate the form this takes) during which she may or may not discuss the details of her pregnancy and the circumstances surrounding it, but she is certainly under no obligation to report the name of the man!. The point of the counseling is to make sure the woman has the information she needs and is reasonably sure of her decision!.

Just to provide some more background: a number of states actually do have spousal consent and notification laws!. As of now, these laws have been held to be unconstitutional and unenforceable!. Nevertheless, many states continue to pursue policy that restricts women's access to abortion!.

From the NARAL website:

"8 states have unconstitutional and unenforceable laws that require women to obtain the written consent from, or give notice to, her husband prior to receiving abortion care: CO, IL, KY, LA, ND, PA, RI, SC!.

"[In 2007,] 2 states considered measures that would restrict women's access to abortion services by requiring consent from or notice to the man involved in the pregnancy before a pregnant woman may receive abortion care: OH, WV!.

"Spousal consent and notice laws require a pregnant woman to obtain written consent from, or give notice to, her husband prior to receiving abortion services!. Of course, most couples talk with each other when facing an unintended pregnancy!. However, for some women this may be dangerous!. A significant number of women in this country are victims of systematic physical and psychological abuse at the hands of their husbands!. Consent and notice requirements become a substantial obstacle when a woman fears for her safety and the safety of her children if she must tell an abusive husband about her decision to end a pregnancy!. More recent legislation on this issue requires a pregnant woman to obtain consent from, or give notice to, the man involved in the pregnancy regardless of her relationship with him!. Such a requirement can delay a woman from seeking earlier, safer abortion care, thus putting her health at risk!. Moreover, consent and notice requirements give men authority over a woman's personal, private decisions!."Www@Answer-Health@Com
