The second most common reason—socioeconomic concerns—includes disruption of education or employment; lack of support from the father; desire to provide schooling for existing children; and poverty, unemployment or inability to afford additional children. In addition, relationship problems with a husband or partner and a woman's perception that she is too young constitute other important categories of reasons. Women's characteristics are associated with their reasons for having an abortion: With few exceptions, older women and married women are the most likely to identify limiting childbearing as their main reason for abortion. - Conclusions - Reasons women give for why they seek abortion are often far more complex than simply not intending to become pregnant; the decision to have an abortion is usually motivated by more than one factor.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=International+Family+Planning+Perspectives&amp;rft.atitle=Reasons+Why+Women+Have+Induced+Abortions%3A+Evidence+from+27+Countries&amp;rft.volume=24&amp;rft.issue=3&amp;rft.pages=117-127%2C+152&amp;rft.date=1998-09&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.2307%2F3038208&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F3038208%23id-name%3DJSTOR&amp;rft.aulast=Bankole&amp;rft.aufirst=A&amp;rft.au=Singh%2C+S&amp;rft.au=Haas%2C+T&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guttmacher.org%2Fpubs%2Fjournals%2F2411798.html&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Chae_2017-9"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Chae_2017_9-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Chae_2017_9-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFChaeDesaiCrowellSedgh2017" class="citation journal cs1">Chae S, Desai S, Crowell M, Sedgh G (1 October 2017). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5957082">"Reasons why women have induced abortions: a synthesis of findings from 14 countries"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/Contraception_(journal)" title="Contraception (journal)">Contraception</a></i>. <b>96</b> (4): 233–241. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1016%2Fj.contraception.2017.06.014">10.1016/j.contraception.2017.06.014</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMC_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMC (identifier)">PMC</a>&#160;<span class="id-lock-free" title="Freely accessible"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5957082">5957082</a></span>. <a href="/wiki/PMID_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="PMID (identifier)">PMID</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28694165">28694165</a>. <q>In most countries, the most frequently cited reasons for having an abortion were socioeconomic concerns or limiting childbearing.

Studies in approximately the same years found mortality rates of 0.8-1.7 deaths per 100,000 plastic surgery procedures, 0-1.7 deaths per 100,000 dental procedures, 0.6-1.2 deaths per 100,000 marathons run and at least 4 deaths among 100,000 cyclists in a large annual bicycling event. The traffic fatality rate per 758 vehicle miles traveled by passenger cars in the United States in 2007-2011 was about equal to the abortion-related mortality rate. Conclusions: The safety of induced abortion as practiced in the United States for the past decade met or exceeded expectations for outpatient surgical procedures and compared favorably to that of two common nonmedical voluntary activities.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Contraception&amp;rft.atitle=Mortality+of+induced+abortion%2C+other+outpatient+surgical+procedures+and+common+activities+in+the+United+States&amp;rft.volume=90&amp;rft.issue=5&amp;rft.pages=476-479&amp;rft.date=2014-11&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1016%2Fj.contraception.2014.07.012&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F25152259&amp;rft.aulast=Raymond&amp;rft.aufirst=EG&amp;rft.au=Grossman%2C+D&amp;rft.au=Weaver%2C+MA&amp;rft.au=Toti%2C+S&amp;rft.au=Winikoff%2C+B&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-WHO-preventing-unsafe-14"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-WHO-preventing-unsafe_14-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/preventing-unsafe-abortion">"Preventing unsafe abortion"</a>.

Deliberately causing demise of the fetus before labor induction abortion is performed primarily to avoid transient fetal survival after expulsion; this approach may be for the comfort of both the woman and the staff, to avoid futile resuscitation efforts. Some providers allege that feticide also facilitates delivery, although little data support this claim. Transient fetal survival is very unlikely after intraamniotic installation of saline or urea, which are directly feticidal. Transient survival with misoprostol for labor induction abortion at greater than 18 weeks ranges from 0% to 50% and has been observed in up to 13% of abortions performed with high-dose oxytocin. Factors associated with a higher likelihood of transient fetal survival with labor induction abortion include increasing gestational age, decreasing abortion interval and the use of nonfeticidal inductive agents such as the PGE1 analogues.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Contraception&amp;rft.atitle=Clinical+guidelines.+Labor+induction+abortion+in+the+second+trimester&amp;rft.volume=84&amp;rft.issue=1&amp;rft.pages=4-18&amp;rft.date=2011-07&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1016%2Fj.contraception.2011.02.005&amp;rft_id=info%3Apmid%2F21664506&amp;rft.aulast=Borgatta&amp;rft.aufirst=Lynn&amp;rft.au=Kapp%2C+Nathalie&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.contraceptionjournal.org%2Farticle%2FS0010-7824%2811%2900057-6%2Fpdf&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-NAF_2015_Policy-87"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-NAF_2015_Policy_87-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation book cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://prochoice.org/wp-content/uploads/2015_NAF_CPGs.pdf"><i>2015 Clinical Policy Guidelines</i></a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>.

In my sixteen years of specializing, I have successfully performed about 13,844 abortions.<br /> This was without the loss of the life of a single one of my patients. I feel those figures are something of which to be proud. I feel—I'm sure—that the work I have been engaged in these past years has been a contribution to Society and has helped to straighten out the messed up lives of many people.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Criminal+Abortion%3A+A+Study+in+Medical+Sociology&amp;rft.pages=59&amp;rft.pub=Charles+C.+Thomas&amp;rft.date=1964&amp;rft_id=info%3Aoclcnum%2F299149&amp;rft.isbn=978-0-398-00109-4&amp;rft.aulast=Bates&amp;rft.aufirst=Jerome+E&amp;rft.au=Zawadzki%2C+Edward+S&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-134"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-134">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFKeller1981" class="citation book cs1">Keller A (1981). <i>Scandalous Lady: The Life and Times of Madame Restell</i>.

Not so: most of the opposition to, and all of the laws against, abortion arose in the 19th century. Historian Mohr amply documents the earlier acceptance of abortion. ... In the 19th century even many of the feminists expressed horror at abortion, urging abstinence instead. Not so in the 20th century. In the 19th century the medical profession was fairly united against abortion; Mohr argues that this arose from the commercial competition between the 'regulars' (men with M.D.'s) and the irregulars (women without M.D.'s). ... A key role in generating prohibition laws was played by the press, ... . By 1900 the abortion-prohibition laws were immune to questioning, as they remained until the 1960's when feminists and a new breed of physicians combined to arouse the public to the injustice of the law. ... the <i>Roe v. Wade</i> decision of the Supreme Court ... essentially returned the practice of abortion to the permissive state <i>ante</i> 1820.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=The+Quarterly+Review+of+Biology&amp;rft.atitle=Abortion+in+America.+The+Origins+and+Evolution+of+National+Policy%2C+1800%E2%80%931900.+James+C.+Mohr&amp;rft.volume=53&amp;rft.issue=4&amp;rft.pages=499&amp;rft.date=1978-12&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1086%2F410954&amp;rft.aulast=Hardin&amp;rft.aufirst=G&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-215"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-215">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFAcevedo1979" class="citation journal cs1">Acevedo ZP (Summer 1979).

But it was part of the Eugenics Protection Law – yes, it really was called that. It had nothing to do with giving women more control over their reproductive health. Rather, it was about preventing 'inferior' births. ... So, to this day, women who want an abortion must get written permission from their husband, partner, or in some cases their boyfriend. ... Unlike the US, Japanese views on abortion are not driven by religious belief. Instead, they derive from a long history of patriarchy and deeply traditional views on the role of women and motherhood.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.jtitle=BBC+News&amp;rft.atitle=Abortion+pill%3A+Why+Japanese+women+will+need+their+partner%27s+consent+to+get+a+tablet&amp;rft.date=2022-08-31&amp;rft.aulast=Wingfield-Hayes&amp;rft.aufirst=Rupert&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.com%2Fnews%2Fworld-asia-62515356&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AAbortion" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-239"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-239">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFFarrell2010" class="citation book cs1">Farrell C (2010). <i>Abortion Debate</i>.
