Question
First off I'd like to thank you very much for responding to this. I know nothing really about abortion, as in how it works. If you could explain to me the different ways of abortion, it would be appretiated. Plus, can you be too young to get an abortion? (Like if your a teenager will it effect your body because it's not fully grown or something?) And related to that, can you die from giving birth if your to young? Please answer what you can, and Thanks so much for taking time to do so :)

Dear Lulu,
I think you would find my websites helpful: earlyabortion.com; and earlyabortionoptions.com. You can look at the sections on frequently asked question. Medically, there are no issues in being to young to have an abortion, but some states have restrictions on age. If you need an abortion, and don't know how to find help, I would recommend NAF.org or planned parenthood. I hope these references are helpful,
Doctor Joan
