3 weeks the cell will begin to become clumps and the first nerve cells of the baby will be formed. HCG a hormone formed during pregnancy is in your blood from time of conception. This hormone is what helps detect that you are pregnant when a test is taken which will show positive. ("Conception & Pregnancy: Ovulation, Fertilization, and More," n.d.).
Abortion to me is a very touchy subject. Abortion is when terminating a pregnancy by the removing or expelling of a fetus or embryo from the uterus. There are two different kinds of induced termination, chemical and surgical to how they can "abort" the fetus. With surgical there are 8 different procedures, Manual Vacuum Aspiration, Suction Curettage, D & C (Dilation and Curettage), D & E (Dilation and Evacuation), Saline, Prostaglandin, and Hysterectomy, D & X (Dilation and Extraction). Chemically there are only 3 different procedures RU-486 Mifepristone also known as the abortion pill, Methotrexate and Misoprostol and Plan B "the morning after pill". Most common chemical abortion is the abortion pill Mifepristone, surgically manual vacuum aspiration. There are many reasons on why women decide to abort their fetus. The main reason is usually because they are not ready to have a child because they are young also. Some because they are not financially stable or in stable relationship to bring a child into the world. School and work being another factor because some feel as though it will stop there life when they have a child. Abortions are consistent across different countries with America being included. Statistics say that minority race is the most common to get this procedure due to the face they have higher incidence of unplanned pregnancies. In other countries they are more concerned with health risk and complications that may occur due to unsafe practices in medical settings. The law to abortion differs from state to state in the U.
