A new study has brought to light a shocking fact– 41 million abortions were sanctioned by married women between 2010-2014 making up for 73% of all abortions in that time period. This speaks to the level of infidelity in the world today. The new study was conducted by the Guttmacher Institute and the World Health Organisation. The study’s conclusions posit that between 2010–2014, a quarter of all pregnancies worldwide ended in abortion. It also measured that by marital status, the estimated abortion rate in 2010–2014 was 35 per 1,000 women – 36 per 1,000 for married women and 25 per 1,000 for unmarried women.
The publication entitled

“Abortion incidence between 1990 and 2014: global, regional, and subregional levels and trends,”
by Gilda Sedgh et al. Identified that the overall number of abortions per 1,000 women of childbearing age (15–44 years old) in developed countries dropped from 46 to 27, in developing countries, it changed little, from 39 to 37. The study stated that abortion had actually climbed due to rising population from 50.4 million in 1990–1994 to 56.3 million in 2010–2014.
According to Dr. Sedgh, lead author of the study and a principal research scientist at the Guttmacher Institute.
Quote
““These trends suggest that women and couples in the developed world have become more successful at avoiding unintended pregnancies—the cause of most abortions—over the last two decades, “High abortion rates are directly correlated to high levels of unmet contraceptive need. Our findings indicate that in many developing regions, women lack the contraceptive services they need and are unable to prevent pregnancies they do not want to have.”
