 Pre-Conference Workshop: Addressing Family Planning
                from Christian Viewpoints
         Marymount University, Arlington, VA
                     9 June 2012

                                                       1
Post Abortion Family Planning:
               Key Message
• “If the woman we treat for post abortion
  complications is there because she could not get
  contraception, we have failed her.
• If she leaves without family planning we have failed
  her twice.”




                                                         2
Key consensus points: Post-abortion FP

• Globally, one in three pregnancies ends in abortion –
  more than 70 million (spontaneous or induced)
• Unmet need for family planning--primary cause of
  induced abortion
• At risk of another pregnancy in two to three weeks
  post procedure
• All post-abortion women should receive voluntary
  post abortion family planning counseling


                                                          3
Key consensus points: post-abortion FP

• Wide range of contraceptive methods, including
  long-acting methods offered—with simple written
  instructions
• PAC FP uptake high when offered before discharge
• Provision of universal access to post abortion FP
  should be standard of practice for doctors, nurses,
  and midwives



                                                        4
Best practice: Health providers ensure universal
access to postabortion as well as postpartum
family planning
REMEMBER:
• The most common harm for women using
  contraception is an unintended pregnancy—often
  leading to abortion

• All postabortion women need to delay next
  pregnancy 6+ months, including those who lost a
  wanted pregnancy (miscarriage)

• If she leaves without family planning we have
  failed her twice
                                                    5
