Abstract:

In Brazil, several limitations are imposed on the access of women undergoing abortion to the health care network, under the influence of moral and religious values and gender inequities. The objective was to analyze the experience of women who had an abortion regarding care provided by health services, as part of the abortion itinerary. This is qualitative research, carried out with 18 women in three cities, one small city, one medium-sized and one big city, in the state of Bahia. Data were produced by face-to-face or virtual interviews. The empirical material was analyzed using the discourse analysis technique. The results show, in the three municipalities, abortion itineraries under social and gender inequities, with greater access difficulties for low-income women. Better financial conditions allow access to clandestine private clinics, but without guaranteeing humanized care. In the three municipalities, economically disadvantaged women self-induced abortions and delayed seeking services, having faced embarrassing and prejudiced professional attitudes. The results point to the urgency of implementing public policies in which reproductive rights are as effective as human rights.
