No matter their age, every person in Washington has the legal right to get an abortion.
All abortions must be performed before {{viability}{Viability is a medical term that means when a fetus could potentially survive outside of the womb}}, unless the pregnant person’s life or health is in danger. Abortion clinics in Washington can perform abortions up to 26 weeks. Check with your clinic to get more specific information about how many weeks pregnant you can be and still have an abortion at that clinic.
No. In Washington, there are no extra restrictions for people under 18. You do not need to tell or involve an adult in your decision to have an abortion if you do not want to.
You may be able to get help paying for your abortion. Your clinic may be able to help you cover the cost of your abortion through an abortion fund.
