چکیده

La falta de planificación del embarazo es uno de los grandes problemas de salud reproductiva y sexual en todos los paı́ses, tanto desarrollados como en desarrollo. Aproximadamente la mitad de los embarazos no se planifican, y de éstos la mitad acaban en un aborto provocado. En Barcelona, las cifras de no planificación del embarazo son similares (42%) y llegan a representar más del 80% en las mujeres más jóvenes. Entre los años 1998 y 2007, en España prácticamente se doblaron las tasas de aborto, que pasaron de 6 a 11,5 por 1000 mujeres de 15 a 44 años. Estas tasas presentan grandes variaciones dependiendo sobre todo de la edad y de la clase social de la mujer. Con algunas excepciones, las mujeres jóvenes y las de clases sociales más desfavorecidas planifican menos y abortan más. A todo ello se suma la nueva realidad social y económica de nuestro paı́s, con una reciente inmigración multicultural y plurinacional. Las personas inmigrantes son fundamentalmente personas jóvenes y sanas, que en su mayorı́a forman parte de la clase social trabajadora manual. La inmigración está contribuyendo a incrementar la fecundidad, y al aumento de los embarazos no planificados y de los abortos.
