GUTIERREZ RAMOS, Miguel. Ethical controversies in abortion care, in vitro fertilization and contraception in women. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2023, vol.69, n.2, 00010.  Epub July 06, 2023. ISSN 2304-5132.  http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v69i2516.

In relation to reproductive processes, the scientific evidence of recent years and the vast and better information available for measuring and estimating morbidity and mortality indicators in reproductive health have led to the definition of new strategies within the framework of women's right to health. For some people these approaches are clear, but for others they are not so clear, generating controversies in the light of ethical principles that need to be raised and, if possible, resolved. In this sense, we have selected for this presentation abortion, assisted reproduction and contraception, current issues that raise different or opposing opinions of individuals or institutions, not always the product of a reflection, fair, honest, non-ideologized, looking for the welfare of people. Sometimes, it is the result of the satisfaction of a personal or institutional interest.

Keywords : Abortion; In vitro fertilization; Contraception; Principle-based ethics.
