  • Title: Unsafe abortion in Kenya.
    Author: Biddlecom A.
    Journal: Issues Brief (Alan Guttmacher Inst); 2008 Nov; (4):1-4. PubMed ID: 19537328.
    Abstract:
    Though pregnancy termination is highly restricted in Kenya, induced abortion remains common. Illegal abortion is often unsafe, putting women at risk of death or severe complications. In eastern Africa as a whole, an estimated 14% of all pregnancies end in abortion, and nearly one in five maternal deaths are due to unsafe abortion.
