What is self-managed abortion?

Self-managed abortion is any abortion that takes place in whole or in part outside the formal healthcare system. People have been self-managing their abortions for thousands of years. While there are a number of different methods, today an increasingly common way is with abortion pills. Unfortunately, self-managed abortion can carry legal risks for those having the abortion and those who support them.
