Abortion:
The complete process to end a pregnancy is known as an abortion. There are two methods to abort the embryo or fetus from the uterus.
Ø By surgery
The abortion method used in the clinic is also known as surgical abortion. It is a medical process. The whole kit and caboodle are using by force to make your uterus empty. And if you want, after some time then, it hangs on the laws in your country and what doctor, abortion clinic, and health center you go to. After the 12th week of your pregnancy, it becomes difficult to find a doctor or nurse who will do an abortion, so you should abort your embryo at an early stage because the passage of time may create many problems for you.
You can make an appointment for safe and authorized abortion at one of your h…

WASHINGTON, Nov 18 2005 (IPS) – Labour, environmental and public health groups, along with some U.S. legislators, are warning the George W. Bush administration to quit new free trade talks with Andean countries or face another bitter battle in Congress.
U.S. officials say they are discussing the U.S.-Andean Free Trade Agreement (AFTA) with officials from the Andean countries in Washington, and could announce a deal soon. Negotiations may conclude this month, perhaps before the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States on Nov. 24.
We are meeting this week with Colombia, Peru and Ecuador, the spokeswoman for the United States Trade Representative (USTR), Neena Moorjani, told IPS. We are making some progress and narrowing differences.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Nov 30 2006 (IPS) – For a rare dose of optimism, stop by the oldest private HIV research centre in the world. Fight your way through the chaotic, filthy streets of downtown Port-au-Prince, through a crowd of men, women and children awaiting care, and you ll find Dr. Jean William Pape, smiling in a crisp white medical cloak.
Pape, the director of Gheskio, which he co-founded in 1982, has good news to report. Studies show that Haiti s HIV rate is less than half what it was in 1993. And today an estimated 10,000 people are on anti-retroviral medication, with funds coming in for double that. In a poor and deeply divided country, public, private and international sectors have come together to fight a horrific epidemic, and made progress.
But the…

MEXICO CITY, May 22 2009 (IPS) – In the last 13 months, 12 of Mexico s 32 states have approved amendments to their state constitutions defining a fertilised human egg as a person with a right to legal protection, and seven other state parliaments are taking steps in the same direction.
Non-governmental organisations (NGOs) say it is a massive conservative reaction to a law decriminalising abortion up to 12 weeks gestation that went into force in the Mexican capital in April 2007.
The law was upheld in August 2008 by the Supreme Court, which ruled that it did not violate the Mexican constitution.
Behind the wave of reforms of state constitutions, according to critics, is a pact between the hierarchy of the Mexican Catholic Church and the leadersh…
BUENOS AIRES, Jan 24 2012 (IPS) – Thousands of people in the northwest Argentine province of La Rioja are mobilising to stop an open-cast gold mining project in the Nevados de Famatina, a snowy peak that is the semi-arid area s sole source of drinking water.
La Rioja is a dry province and we have just enough clean water to live on, but not to share with miners, one of the protesters, Héctor Artuso, a resident from the small town of Villa Pituil, in the Famatina area, told IPS.
Residents of Famatina and neighbouring Chilecito have set up a partial roadblock at Alto Carrizal, a stop located 4,000 metres above sea level on a gravel road leading up to the highest point of this mountain chain, Cerro General Belgrano (better known as Nevados de Famatina), which stands at 6,250 m…

ABEYI, Oct 30 2013 (IPS) – When Chris Bak returned two weeks ago to the disputed border town of Abyei, which voted this week on whether to join Sudan or South Sudan, he barely recognised it as the place where he grew up. “Everything is dirty,” he told IPS. “We were just going around and around, but we didn’t [recognise] this place.”
The town lies in the centre of the , a 10,000 square kilometre area that…

PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Nov 26 2015 (IPS) – “My two sons were killed by Taliban militants mercilessly three years ago. My husband died a natural death two year back. Now, I am begging to raise my two grandsons,” Gul Pari, 50, told IPS.
Pari, who is waiting for her turn at a psychiatrist’s clinic in Peshawar, the capital of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, says she dreamed every night that her sons were alive and would return one day.
“I am waiting for them. They are martyrs and will come and take revenge from their …
UNITED NATIONS, Nov 13 2017 (IPS) – A vibrant global campaign to ban the use of mercury in dentistry is shifting direction: moving from Europe to the developing world.
Charlie Brown, Attorney President of the World Alliance for Mercury-Free Dentistry, an organization which is spearheading the campaign, told African and Asian delegates at a meeting in Geneva late September: When you return to your home countries, please do as the European Union has done: phase out amalgam for children now, for one simple reason: The children of your nation are equally important as the children of Europe.
