The issue of abortion is an intricate one, fraught with legal, moral, ethical, and societal implications. It is a subject that elicits deep feelings and ardent debates across the globe. Abortion is either permitted, restricted, or proscribed altogether, contingent on the jurisdiction, and has seen significant legal transformations over time. Some of the influencing factors for abortion rights range from preserving physical and mental health to sociopolitical considerations, and simply a woman's choice. As of 2022, approximately 60% of the world's population residents in regions where abortion on request or for socioeconomic reasons is legally permitted. The abortion rates are almost at par in countries where the process is legal and where it's not. This could be mainly attributed to the unavailability of modern contraceptives in regions where abortion is illegal. However, the silver lining is that abortion rates globally are on a declining trend due to increased accessibility to contraception.
