One of the furthermost essential issues in biomedical ethics is the controversy around abortion. There’s a long history on this controversy and it is still critically debated among researchers and the public in both terms of morality and legality. Some of the basic questions argued that may perhaps characterize the importance of the issue: Is abortion morally justifiable? Does the foetus/embryo/zygote have any moral and legal rights? Is the foetus a human being and, if so, should it be protected
Abortion is the removal of an embryo or fetus from the uterus in order to end a pregnancy. It is considered a very delicate subject and even sometimes taboo among the population.

Abortion Abortion is the ending of pregnancy by abolishing a fetus or embryo before it can survive outside the uterus.

Since 1973 and even before, abortion has raged into a hot-topic issue among the press, politicians, and even doctors; among many other people. This topic has been disputed since even before the late Nineteenth Century. During the 1940s, it even became a social norm to raid the abortionists’ offices. From that time on, the abortion debate has been brought into light many times. Abortion is a never-ending controversial
Abortion is probably one of the biggest debates to date in the United State. The article was a pro-abortion article, and gave examples as to why it is a women’s right to choose. It was written by a doctor who shares the opinion that abortion is okay. There may be a time where it is necessary for a woman to have the choice to have an abortion or not.

Abortion legalization We can do whatever we want with our body, it is our property. What government can do about this is to suggest, not to suppress.

Abortion For many years, people have been fighting for their own rights. Life has been viewed in many different ways. Some people have been raised in a household with different mindsets or some just eventually create their own mindset as time passes by.

The consequences may not occur now but eventually in the future
