In Germany, abortion is permitted in Germany for the first trimester. But there's one hard restriction: a woman must first seek counseling before getting an abortion. The goal of counseling, according to German law, is to "protect the unborn life. The counseling should encourage the woman to continue the pregnancy, and should help her see the opportunities of bringing up a child." After the counseling, the woman must observe a three-day "consideration period" during which she must decide if she wants the abortion. If she does want the abortion, she can proceed to do so, and the counselor will typically refer her to a clinic or hospital.  
En Allemagne, l'avortement est autorisé jusqu'au premier trimestre. Mais il y a une restriction: une femme doit prendre conseil avant de pratiquer l'avortement. Le but du conseil, selon la loi Allemande, est de "protéger la vie pas encore née. Le conseil devrait encourager la femme à continuer sa grossesse, et devrait l'aider  à voir les avantages à élever un enfant". Après le conseil, la femme doit observer une 'période de considération' de trois jours, pendant laquelle elle doit décider si elle souhaite ou non l'avortement. Si elle décide d'avorter, elle peut procéder aux démarches, et le conseiller la guidera généralement vers une clinique ou un hôpital.  


Despite these restrictions, abortion in Germany, especially in Berlin, is very common. In the first trimester, legal reasons for an abortion include: to save the life of the woman, to preserve physical health, to preserve mental health, rape or incest, fetal impairment, economic or social reasons, and available on request. After the first trimester, abortions can be performed if the woman has mental/health problems or if there is potential risk to the fetus. But this is an exception, not the standard, and a case must be made.
