About this statute

A pregnant woman requesting an abortion has a right to have it performed without permission if the procedure is done before the end of the 18th week of pregnancy. Reglerne giver mulighed for abort efter 18. graviditetsuge uden tilladelse i visse tilfælde, kræver speciallægevurdering og siger, at abort og fosterreduktion efter 18. uge kun må udføres af speciallæger på de regionale sygehuse.
