Abstract

Objective: To explore the status and influencing factors of abortion among migrant women of childbearing age in 3 municipalities of China (Beijing,Shanghai and Chongqing) in order to provide reference for further amelioration of induced service. Methods: As a cross sectional study,data was selected from the National Key Technology Research and Development Program of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China during the 12th Five-year Plan,while ordinal logistic regression model was applied to find out the relationship. Results: The prevalence of abortion among migrant women of childbearing age was 24.9% (944/3 782).Women reported that why they chose abortion was mainly because of "no contraception" and "fail of contraception".A proportion of 10.9% of women who had abortion reported "bad fetal quality".With the control for age,marital status,educational level,job status,per capita monthly income of household,Logistic analysis found that migrant women who had lower age of first migration,lower age of first sexual intercourse,sex depression, premarital sex were more potentially exposed to abortion. Conclusions: The proportion of induced abortion among migrant women of childbearing age was high.Migrant women who had lower age of first migration,lower age of first sexual intercourse,sex depression,premarital sex should be specially provided with sexual and reproductive health education and intervention measures for induced abortion. © 2019, Editorial Department of Fudan University Journal of Medical Sciences.
