About the condition
Plain-language background from MedlinePlus (National Library of Medicine), not coding guidance.
Abortion
An induced abortion is a procedure to end a pregnancy. It can be done two different ways: An induced abortion is different from a spontaneous abortion. That is the loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week of pregnancy. It is more commonly known as a miscarriage.
