Abstract:
Latter research presents that various defects of reproductive performance, which negatively affect fetus formation
and development, in 20-30% of cases are caused by the artificial abortion. With increasing number of
abortions the probability of mortinality, natality of premature infant, and his mortality during the first week of
life is raised. Despite the decreased total number of abortions, its level remains high. In the Republic of Kazakhstan
against low birth-rate every 7th abortion (13,9) is done to primigravida. Abortion — today one of
the most discussed topics in the world. Аlso the most controversial and contested issue among women of reproductive
age. In today's world the permissibility of abortion and its limits is one of the most controversial
issues, including religious, ethical, medical, social and legal aspects. Analysis of the literature will clarify the
social, moral, medical aspects in this field. This showed that the society can not find common ground and
agree once and for all about this problem.
