An ultrasound examination at 18 weeks of pregnancy reveals gross structural deformities in the skull and head of the fetus making it highly likely that the newborn will be suffering from severe mental abnormalities not amenable to treatment and is likely to have a very short life span. Which of the following will be true for such a situation?

1. The pregnancy cannot be legally terminated as 18 weeks is beyond the statutory limit of legalized abortions.
2. The couple should be advised to get the MTP performed illegally by a quack as the child will suffer whatever short life it may have.
3. The pregnancy must continue till 24 weeks and if a repeat examination confirms the conditions, MTP should be performed as then it would be legal.
4. The MTP should be advised to the couple if two separate registered medical practitioners share the view that sufficient grounds exist to terminate the pregnancy.

A high success rate of preventing pregnancy by the insertion of IUD as an emergency contraceptive within 72 hours of coitus suggests that: 

1. There is a latency between the release of the ovum and it getting ready for fertilization
2. The journey from the point of insemination to the site of fertilization is very long for a very small-sized sperm and takes considerable time.
3. IUDs may also make the uterine endometrium hostile to implantation.
4. If the secretion of hCG by the trophoblast cells can be stopped, it will lead to spontaneous abortion as happens due to the insertion of IUDs.
