Abortion is a very common medical procedure as 25% of pregnancies are terminated every year, but unfortunately, half of them are still being carried out in dangerous conditions. “Almost every abortion death and disability could be prevented through sexuality education, use of effective contraception, provision of safe, legal induced abortion, and timely care for complications” (WHO), but stigma is still a driver of fear and leads women to unsafe procedures. safe2choose has created a testimonials page where everyone can safely and anonymously share their abortion story in order to normalize the procedure and help other women seeking an abortion feel supported.
