  1.  Abortion is not legal in Kuwait.


    Some information about abortion is as follows -


     


    Grounds on which abortion is permitted:


    To save the life of the woman Yes

    To preserve physical health Yes

    To preserve mental health Yes

    Rape or incest No

    Foetal impairment Yes

    Economic or social reasons No

    Available on request No


    Additional requirements:


    Except in urgent cases, an abortion may be performed only in public hospitals after a medical committee, composed of three specialists under the chairmanship of a specialist in gynaecology and obstetrics, has processed the application.  An abortion is allowed if it is established that the child if born will suffer from a grave and incurable physical or mental deficiency.  The consent of both the woman and her husband must be obtained.  The hospital director must be notified before the abortion is performed.


     


    A practical solution is to fly to a country where abortion is legal.


    A safe and legal abortion can be done in India.


    People whom i know fly to Mumbai for abortion.


    A safe and legal abortion center would be government hospitals like KEM or JJ Hospital.


    A Private center would be the Family hospital at Mumbai which provides safe and confidential abortion services - both first and second trimester abortion services.


    You could visit them at abortionindiadotcom.
