Question

Medical termination of pregnancy is safe upto

• A. 12 weeks
• B. 18 weeks
• C. 6 weeks
• D. 10 weeks

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

12 weeks

MTPs are considered relatively safe during the first trimester, i.e., up to 12 weeks of the pregnancy. Second-trimester abortions are much riskier . Intentional or voluntary termination of the pregnancy before full term is called medical termination of pregnancy (MTP).

So the correct option is 'A' '12 weeks'.
