Methods attempted[edit]
There have been many different methods used throughout history by women to self-manage (or self-induce) an abortion. '''There is little research whether or not non-medical induced abortions are safe or not. The most common alternatives found in a series of studies was pills and herbs. Not having access to healthcare is a reason some of there alternative methods exist. Self-induce abortion can be dated back to Rome. This practice can also be found in medieval times, the Victorian era, and then carried over into the 19th and 20th century. It wasn't until the 20th century where medically induced abortions showed to be safer and reduce risk from alternative methods. '''
