A study shows that the human foetus experiences no pain earlier than 24 weeks. The correlation in the foetal brain is not completely created during that time, nor in the foetus mind. This hypothesis is coined by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

The result of two reports specially made by the Department of Health hit a blow to those looking for to diminish the upper time boundary for doing an abortion, presently at 24 weeks.

The analysis recommends that delayed abortions, allowed for severe defect or threat to a woman's health, do not effect in foetal pain because of rising proof that the chemical atmosphere in the uterus provokes a constant sleep-like coma or sedation.

The statement on pain observation states that relations from the edge to the cortex are not unbroken before 24 weeks of conception and, as the majority of neuroscientists think that the cortex is needed for pain sensitivity.

So it can be finished with a statement that the foetus cannot feel pain or other sensations in the brain, previous to this conception or gestation.
