Sometimes a girl/woman has a pregnancy she does not want, particularly if she was forced into sex or raped or she will have to leave school. See a midwife or doctor for counselling if you are finding pregnancy difficult to cope with. Get support from people you trust. Planned abortion is very risky-you can bleed to death or get an infection that will make you infertile. Get courage and tell your parents and guardians. Many people have delivered their babies and then gone back to school.
