Abortion on request is not authorized. It is permitted up to 4 months of pregnancy if the pregnancy endangers the woman or person’s health. It is also permitted if the pregnancy endangers the woman or person’s life, for a legitimate reason that does not include harm of hardship from raising a child or fear of being unable to pay for living expenses or education or the couple's feeling that they already have enough children, or if the mother may suffer serious anticipated and verified harm if she continues the pregnancy. For this case no limitation regarding the lengths of pregnancy is mentioned in the legal text.
