TELEMEDICINE GUIDELINES FOR MTP MEDICATION
“I fully understand your request, but unfortunately the “Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act, 1971” (Act 34 of 1971) has some restrictions. I am sharing with you this Act and I encourage you to read this Act in detail.
To summarize, the Act requires MTP to be performed in a hospital established/maintained by the government or a place approved by the government. As you know, this is not a hospital and it is an online consultation platform with limitations to evaluate your pregnancy for your safety. Also, online consultations are not approved by law to perform or prescribe pills for MTP. Any violation of the said Act is a punishable offence as per the law.
MTP is a procedure with a possibility of l that these restrictions or MTP are put in place by law for your safety.
Keeping your safety and well-being in mind, I recommend you to visit a registered and trained obstetrician of your choice along with your most recent urine/blood pregnancy test report and ultrasound report for further evaluation.”
