Abortions: Legal, Medical & Humanity issues
​

Abortion is the common term used to describe induced Miscarriage[Criminal part] in general public..

But in terminology abortion consists of both induced Miscarriage & spontaneous Miscarriage

• Spontaneous Miscarriage in early pregnancy is the commonest medical complication in human with one of two conceptions are lost before the 1st trimester 1

• Induced abortion consists of both Therapeutic & Criminal termination of pregnancy.

Induced Miscarriage or "abortion" is a widely discussed & controversial topic.

In Sri lanka induced abortion is legally prohibited unless its a act to prevent maternal death.....

Abstract :
"Sri Lanka's current abortion law was one of the topics discussed at the 1976 Seminar on Population Law and the Medical Profession in Sri Lanka. At the close of the seminar a questionnaire on abortion was distributed among the participants of the seminar in order to determine if the participants were in favor of changing the present abortion laws, and if so, in what way did they want the laws changed. Completed questionnaires were obtained from 71 respondents, including 37 doctors, 19 lawyers, 6 administrators,and 9 respondents representing diverse occupations. Most of the respondents were Sinhalese and 80% were Buddhists. Among the 59 doctors and lawyers, only 4 were satisfied with the present law. The majority were in favor of making abortion available to poor women and most viewed large families as a economic burden. 80% believed that abortion should be covered by a separate statute and that the statute should
1) specify qualification for abortion providers;
2) require the registration of all abortion facilities;
3) require women to obtain a certificate from a physician prior to abortion; and
4) allow unmarried women to have abortions.
Although most of the respondents favored changing the laws, there was, in general, little consensus in regard to the specific manner in which the law should be changed. Given the lack of consensus, the Family Planning Association decided to undertake a study to determine the reasons why women seek abortion. Numerous attempts were made in the past to modify abortion laws, but as yet, no action has been taken. The recommendation was made that the members of the medical and legal professions seek to increase public awareness of the many issues involved in abortion. "

But in West induced abortions are allowed in law to some extent

• With our cultural & religious back ground is therapeutic abortion this acceptable:
• Is a raped girl ,if conceived, should allowed to conduct induced abortion
  
• how can the the increasing number of the criminal miscarriages (Abortion in Sri Lanka) reduced prevent sepsis & maternal deaths
• Should SL Abortion law has to be changed ..??

the laws should change.... should allow in some situations.

ex : a girl raped by someone and she gets pregnant.

when we come to a case like that it is acceptable.

1) specify qualification for abortion providers;
2) require the registration of all abortion facilities;
3) require women to obtain a certificate from a physician prior to abortion;

AGREE....

4) allow unmarried women to have abortions.

FOR THIS ONE THERE MUST BE A ACCEPTABLE REASON.

Thanks for the link

Here i m not telling it should be legalized

but i believe there should be a change of law definitely..
According to ma religion( m Buddhist) its a crime..human life is precious...but as always there is "but" cos of some social facts..isn't it?

What do you mean ?

 

[rusty123]

Yeah my dear, Its true.. Bt if u give excemption for special cases, u know abt our ppl, they will take the camel through the needle hole... so everyone will get escape from this 4 sure...

Yeah the social factor ..mentality & future of innocent girl..she may become depressed..commit suicide..for a crime that she has never contributed

1) specify qualification for abortion providers;
2) require the registration of all abortion facilities;
3) require women to obtain a certificate from a physician prior to abortion;

AGREE....

these were taken from the article..but these standards should be obtained

4) allow unmarried women to have abortions.

FOR THIS ONE THERE MUST BE A ACCEPTABLE REASON.

This is the harsh thing...there is a good social health care system in SL (comparatively & considering the Spread)
There are safe & reasonable contraceptive methods widely available..why this..
the fact is inert shyness of our people..they are tented not to use these methods..either unaware or negligence:
Proper health education(specially school level) & upgrade knowledge me reduce the numbers of unwanted pregnancies

 

[amila_90210]

ah these are done in SL..simple operation as far as i know Its a another broad social issue..but discussing it more drag us away from the topic

tHat is a good point.... that is why the laws should make strict. still... agree with you. But if it keeps illegal as now... what happen to " special cases " we mentioned ??

 

[amila_90210]

Yeah my dear, Its true.. Bt if u give excemption for special cases, u know abt our ppl, they will take the camel through the needle hole... so everyone will get escape from this 4 sure...

you are 100% true..its typical nature..
but misleading(fraud acts) is another crime..is it a reason not to change law...ppl always break rules..triying to seek from even the smalest hole of the net...ppl do kill someone n get away.through these holes
PS: m not 100% sure about the way this law should changed n i m not 100% in about the law facter.

4th one is abit tricky....... if ur disallowing it then what's the reason? whether it's allowed or not people will still have sex.......so if abortion is disallowed just to keep unmarried couples from having sex then I guess it will not be lucrative as we think.

after ages... nice to see you.

k. people in these days educated enough about safe sex and birth control pills. but unfortunately still unwanted pregnancy issues are there. specially in rural areas.

it is not about Stopping sex before marriage. it is not gonna work. but if a law came allowing abortion for um married ones everyone is gonna miss use it.
what i believe is It should legalise for special cases (ex : RAPE ).

machan... misuse mean... even married people who want to destroy the baby( i really dunno the word ) before birth may try to do it legally. eveny if there is NO acceptable reason.

drugs ?? when it comes to this topic it is kinda different. if you wanna have drugs you harm to your self. you kill self. Not a innocent soul.
