The pregnancy made me feel angry and out of control of my own body- the abortion gave me freedom and I felt relieved to be able to take back control of my body. I feel lucky and can’t imagine what it’s like for the women not having access to this health care.

Took tablets at clinic and then went home. I had been told to prepare for pain but there was none, just heavy bleeding. A good experience. I just wish people told me how easy it was as I had never been educated on it beforehand!
