Comments on: What It Really Takes To Get An Abortion: New Report from Third Wave’s Emergency Abortion Fund http://www.thirdwavefoundation.org/what-it-really-takes-to-get-an-abortion/ Thu, 18 Apr 2013 02:05:32 +0000 hourly 1 By: Lucia http://www.thirdwavefoundation.org/what-it-really-takes-to-get-an-abortion/comment-page-1/#comment-3008 Lucia Wed, 06 Mar 2013 00:59:26 +0000 http://www.thirdwavefoundation.org/?p=2409#comment-3008 This leaves out 2 important factors, that, as far as I know, are relevant in the majority of abortions insofar as “what it takes”:

1. Transportation home (or to hotel) that is NOT public or taxi. This may result in being unable to have the procedure due to lack of transportation, or forcing the woman to admit personal healthcare information.
2. Not being too thin or too heavy. Many facilities will consider you ineligible for the procedure if you don’t fall within healthy ranges (and the upper range isn’t very high). Is this for the woman’s own safety? Undoubtedly. Does it mean, in some cases, forcing a woman to carry to term? Yes.
