A Comparative Overview of Abortion’s Ethical, Legal, Medical, and Social Dimensions

Author(s) Ms. Purwa Bala
Country India
Abstract Abortion has always been discussed and debated for a long time, and to this day, people disagree about it. The debate revolves around two terms: Pro-life and Pro-choice. Both terms support two different things. When we say Pro-life, it means that an unborn child also has a right to live, but when we say Pro-choice, it means that a woman has a right to decide whether or not to have a baby.
Abortion has always been a complex issue because it is connected to religion, ethics, medicine, and law. It is also a social issue because it gives women both freedom and control over their own bodies and decisions.
In India, the discussion about abortion is incomplete without addressing the serious problem of female foeticide, which means the practice of aborting the female fetus just because it's a girl child. So, when we say abortion can empower women, then it is important to balance women's freedom and right to the unborn child.
Medical Termination of Pregnancy is a global law that allows abortion on 6 grounds: (1) To protect the women’s life; (2) any danger to women health either physical or mental; (3) If the pregnancy is there because of rape or incest; (4) if there is any risk to the child born with serious abnormality; (5) upon the request of women; (6) Lasty if there is any social or economic problem.
