Computers: (011) 156 664 7070 According to the Ministry of Health of the Nation, 60 of pregnant women in Argentina did not plan their pregnancies.

According to the Ministry of Health of the Nation, this delay can be explained by the stigma associated with illegal abortion. In other words, these deaths are preventable by making information about safe abortion in the hands of women.
