PanARMENIAN.Net – Armenian women are pushing abortion rates to
record high, with some of them having resorted to abortions for as
many as 20 times in their lifetime, according to an Obstetrician/
Gynecologist.As news conference in Yerevan, Ms. Dinara Alagyozyan
stressed the importance of rehabilitation period following the
abortion to avoid serious complications. “Many regions in Armenia
can’t provide adequate conditions for surgical abortion; in some cases,
patients aren’t even anesthetized.”

Ms. Alagyozyan further dwelled on another dangerous tendency among
Armenia women who resort to medicamental abortion at home using
retail drugs. Ms. Alagyozyan warned against using abortive medications
without a doctor’s prescription.

Ms. Alagyozyan further focused on increased abortion rate among
teenagers, citing absence of sexual educations behind the fact.

Unfortunately, as the expert noted, there’s no official statistics
to support the facts.
