Hi and thank you for asking us

Through the question and statement you gave on the above section, i completely understand your concern over this matter. For your information, abortion is illegal in Malaysia except in cases where the doctor deems that continuing the pregnancy poses danger to mother’s life, physical health and mental well-being. For that, I strongly advise for you to visit your nearest clinic and get evaluate by a doctor.

It is important for you to be aware of the possible legal issue related to abortion. Abortion can bring physical and psychological side effects to the woman. Woman may experience uterine scarring, bleeding, infection and worst case death during a abortion procedure. Psychological stress and mental disorder can happened with the woman due to guilt, loss and grief over her death fetus.

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey into motherhood. Make sure you get enough nutrients for you and your baby.
