Förlagets beskrivning
Induced abortions, whether safe, unsafe, legal or illegal are used by women from all spheres of life in resolving unintended pregnancies (Singh, Remez, Sedgh, Kwok, & Onda, 2018). Despite current estimated increases in contraceptive use, induced abortion is said to be one of the most common procedures a woman is likely to undergo during her reproductive life (Chae, Kayembe, Philbin, Mabika, & Bankole, 2017; Jerman, Jones, & Onda, 2016; United Nations, 2019). Yet, because induced abortion often challenges peoples' belief systems and morality, it is a very emotional and controversial issue (Arisi, 2003; Cook, Jelen, & Wilcox, 1993; Faúndes & Barzelatto, 2006). These issues surrounding abortions may be the reason why people often take entrenched positions during discussions about induced abortions, without a dispassionate look at its consequences on the lives and health of women (Arisi, 2003; Cook et al., 1993; Faúndes & Barzelatto, 2006; Jelen & Wilcox, 2003). This chapter introduces the topic of this thesis 'A mixed methods study on post abortion women and service providers in the Ashanti region of Ghana'. I present some introductory information and the personal experiences which led to my interest in abortion research. I further discuss the study rationale and research questions. An overall structure of the thesis completes the chapter
