If you live in Victoria and have an unplanned pregnancy, you can choose to:  Continue the pregnancy and provide care for the baby  Continue the pregnancy and choose alternative care arrangements, or  End the pregnancy by having an abortion.  Everyone has the right to make their own decisions regarding their sexual and reproductive health. You should never feel pressured or forced to do something you do not want to do, even if there is pressure from a loved one, a friend or a health professional.  Within Australia, abortion is a legal, safe and a common medical procedure, used to end a pregnancy. In Victoria, you can have an abortion up to 24 weeks of pregnancy, and in certain situations beyond this. Please note that abortions are time-sensitive and may be more difficult and expensive to access the longer your pregnancy progresses.  In rural and regional areas like the Loddon Mallee, it can be difficult to find information about your options.
