Who might need MTP?
- Unplanned or Unwanted Pregnancy: For personal or social reasons.
- Medical Risks to the Mother: If continuing the pregnancy poses a threat to the mother’s health or life.
- Fetal Abnormalities: If the baby has significant anomalies or developmental issues.
How is MTP Performed?
- A combination of two medicines is prescribed to safely end the pregnancy.
- These medications cause the uterus to expel the pregnancy tissue naturally.
- The process may take a few hours to a couple of days.
- Our team will provide you with clear instructions and support throughout the process.
MTP doesn’t involve the usage of anesthesia or surgical procedures and can be done at any registered MTP clinic or hospital
