    Question

    My Question is this as a 20yrs old teennage if she deside not to go to clinic that thinks she can remove the pregnacy by her self what drugs can she use to remove the unwanted pregnacy and what type of food will she be eating to make her healthy again?

    Answer

    I am so sorry you are faced with an unplanned pregnancy. There is no safe way to get rid of one. Women who try to abort on their own run the risk of an infection, that could make them unable to have a baby ever, or even cause them to die. I hope there is someone in the medical field who can help you.
