Important Legal Notice – Abortion in Pakistan
Abortion without a valid medical condition is illegal in Pakistan and punishable under the Pakistan Penal Code (PPC).

We do not endorse, promote, or facilitate illegal abortions. All consultations are with certified gynecologists who evaluate your case according to medical ethics and legal requirements.
