Will I get in trouble if I go to hospital after taking abortion pills?

If you don't treat a complication, your health and future fertility may be at risk. Malta's public hospitals - Mater Dei Hospital and Gozo General Hospital - are equipped to treat women having a miscarriage.

 

You do not have to tell hospital staff that you tried to cause an abortion by taking pills. Doctors have the obligation to help in all cases and know how to treat a miscarriage.

 

The symptoms of a miscarriage and an abortion with pills are generally the same and the doctor will not be able to see or test for any evidence of an abortion, as long as the abortion pills cannot be found on you.
