This made way for legislation, and legal abortion became available from January 2019.\u00a0 An information and support helpline called \u2018MyOptions\u2019 was funded by the state. The helpline provides non-directive counselling about unplanned pregnancy and provides the contact details for abortion providers.<\/p>\n<p>While this is a huge step forward, there are limitations to the service. Most critical is the fact that MyOptions does not make appointments for abortion-seekers. In 2020, the Abortion Rights Campaign (ARC) conducted research into experiences of abortion care under the new legislation. The full report based on this research study can be read\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.abortionrightscampaign.ie\/facts\/research\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As our article\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/srh.bmj.com\/content\/early\/2022\/03\/13\/bmjsrh-2021-201424\">Analysing MyOptions: experiences of Ireland\u2019s abortion information and support service<\/a>\u00a0reports, ARC\u2019s survey found that many respondents were unaware of the MyOptions helpline. Half of respondents in this study reported that upon becoming pregnant, they did not know where to go to get an abortion, and a third said they did not know where to find information about accessing an abortion in Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>The helpline provides the contact information of providers who have opted into the service. It was established in order to avoid the publication of a public list of providers \u2013 which could facilitate harassment \u2013 but currently only about 10 percent of General Practitioners in the country have opted into the service. Some GP\u2019s provide abortion to their own patients but do not list their medical practice with MyOptions, so their patients would not necessarily know they can receive care from them. Respondents reported frustration that MyOptions did not arrange appointments. It places the burden on individuals to contact providers themselves, which some found stressful and time-consuming. This also creates a risk of patients encountering anti-choice providers, rogue agencies, or \u2018timing out\u2019 of the legal window to access care, which is 12 weeks and zero days on request. A small number of respondents had to contact MyOptions for a second time as they were unable to get an appointment with the provider whose details were initially shared by the MyOptions service.<\/p>\n<p>Some respondents described MyOptions as useful and compassionate, while others found helpline workers cold. MyOptions is also limited to those seeking abortion under 12 weeks gestation. The helpline provides little or no information on how to access abortion after 12 weeks, including in cases where the law permits abortion, such as pregnancies with fatal foetal anomaly or risk to the health of the pregnant person.<\/p>\n<p>Offering guidance to those seeking abortion after 12 weeks gestation and the expansion of MyOptions to include an appointments booking function may go some way towards improving experiences of the service.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/srh.bmj.com\/content\/early\/2022\/03\/13\/bmjsrh-2021-201424\">Analysing MyOptions: experiences of Ireland\u2019s abortion information and support service<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><span lang=\"fr\"><strong>Dr Lorraine Grimes<\/strong>\u00a0is\u00a0<\/span>a Postdoctoral Researcher at Maynooth University.
