It has been well known that the criminal interruption of pregnancy is associated with a high morbidity risk during maternal life. Delayed complications following abortions are considerable although it cannot be assessed statistically. There is clear evidence from other countries that sequelae such as sterility, menorrhagia, recurrent abortion, and premature labour are quite common. At the individual level patient is uncomfortable and miserable as a result of chronic gynaecological illness following abortion. Her capacity to carry out houschold chores become reduced. This would adversely affect the family level when she become1ess efficient and able to deal with the children and family affairs. Marital disharmony may be the problem resulting from chronic pelvic pain and dyspareunia. At the community level evidence have shown that there is high foetal wastage in subsequent pregnancies following abortion. Thus it is responsible for the rise in perinatal and neonatal death rates in the community. At the national level the cost of treatment of abortion and its immediate complications and late sequelae is considerable. Therefore ways and means of reducing abortion rate will have to be considered. Prevention and efficient management of early and late complications of abortion would greatly decrease the chronic gynaecological illness and foetal wastage following antecedent abortion.Item Abortion. magnitude of problem of abortion in the cmmunity(1980-12-01) Tin Tin HmunItem Abortion. magnitude of the problem of abortion in the hospitals(1980-12-01) Mya MyaItem Abortion. septic abortion(1980-12-01) Khin Nyunt; Mya Sann AyeItem Deaths following abortions at Central Woman's Hospital, Rangoon, Burma(1979-01-01) Mya Mya
