In Denmark, abortion is fully legal during the first trimester (first twelve weeks) of pregnancy. Furthermore, abortion is legal during the second trimester (after twelve weeks of pregnancy) in the following circumstances: when the pregnancy endangers the life of the woman, when the pregnancy endangers the physical or mental health of the woman, when there is risk of fetal malformation, when the woman is incapable of taking care of the child due to a physical disorder, mental disorder or youth/immaturity, when the pregnancy, childbirth or childcare constitutes a serious burden to the woman, or when the pregnancy was caused by a crime (like rape or incest).<ref>[https://www.womenonwaves.org/en/page/4769/abortion-law-denmark Abortion law Denmark]</ref> | |||
