Navya Davis is a 28-year-old software...
Navya Davis is a 28-year-old software engineer who recently moved to a new city for her demanding job. She discovered she was pregnant during a routine check-up. The pregnancy was unintended, and after much soul-searching with her partner, they concluded that the timing was catastrophic for their careers and financial stability. Navya was experiencing severe anxiety and morning sickness, which was impacting her ability to work. Her OB-GYN, after confirming the pregnancy and discussing all options, recommended a medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) as she was within the first trimester. The treatment involved taking two sets of medication under clinical supervision. The process was physically taxing with cramping and bleeding, but the clinic staff were supportive. Her physical recovery was straightforward over the next week. Emotionally, Navya felt profound grief and guilt before the procedure, but also a resolute certainty in her decision. Afterwards, while she experienced sadness, she also felt a wave of relief and a renewed focus on building a stable future, allowing herself space to heal without regret.
