A spontaneous abortion is also known as miscarriage. When deliberate steps are taken to terminate a pregnancy, it is  called induced abortion. It differs from premature or preterm labor, since in the latter the fetus survives.]]> 2020-12-04 06:39:33 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986776873 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986777213 2020-12-04 06:39:52 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986777213 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986778063 It is estimated that, each year, around 25 million illegal or unsafe abortions are practiced globally, around 45% of all those that occur in the world, according to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO).]]> 2020-12-04 06:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986778063 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986778785 An estimated 6.9 million women around the world are treated annually for complications resulting from a clandestine abortion.  Of these, 760 thousand are from Latin America.]]> 2020-12-04 06:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986778785 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986779112 2020-12-04 06:41:30 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986779112 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986779789 According to the WHO and the Guttmacher Institute, statistics indicate that restricting legal access to abortions does not reduce the number of these procedures.  Abortion rates are similar in countries where abortion is highly restricted and where it is largely legal.

 The abortion rate is 37 per thousand women in countries that prohibit abortion altogether or allow it only to save a woman's life, and 34 per thousand women in countries that allow abortion without restriction of reason.

 Most abortions that take place in Western and Northern Europe and North America are safe.  These regions, with very lax laws regarding this practice, also have some of the lowest abortion rates.  In addition to relatively lax laws on abortion, these countries also have high levels of contraceptive use, outstanding levels of economic development and gender equality, as well as high-quality health services.]]> 2020-12-04 06:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986779789 patriciaperez0946 https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986780126 2020-12-04 06:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/patriciaperez0946/4uvm78rbo2v8sc6y/wish/986780126
