When is life viable in the womb?

Life in the womb is generally considered viable around 24 weeks of gestation, when the fetus has developed enough to potentially survive outside the uterus with medical assistance. However, advances in neonatal care have allowed some infants born as early as 22 weeks to survive. Viability can vary based on factors like the fetus's health and the quality of medical care available. Ultimately, the determination of viability can also involve ethical and legal considerations.
