up to how many weeks can you have a abortion

It depends. The laws about this vary from state to state, and different health care providers have different rules about when they can perform abortions.

It’s best for an abortion to be done as early as possible. Abortions performed early in pregnancy are easier, safer, and cost less than abortions performed later. Nearly 9 out of 10 abortions are performed during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.
