[Health & Sexuality Info](/health-info)# abortion restrictions

Abortion is restricted in many areas of the world, rather than being treated as the safe, relatively simple medical intervention that it is. Abortion restrictions include legal limits, religious prohibitions, financial expenses, and/or punitive policies such as bans on particular types of abortion, limits according to fetal gestational ages, or denials of insurance coverage.
