StatisticsIn 1997, a survey in Yaoundé found 20 percent of women aged 20–29 had had at least one abortion.[2][3] 80 percent of these procedures took place in a medical facility, but they were not always safe, and women often faced complications.[2] The odds that a pregnant woman would seek an abortion were increased if they were educated or had children.[2] Of women reporting past abortions, 40% had two or more.[2] The survey found that 35% of all reported pregnancies in the capital city ended in abortion.[3] Access to reproductive health careIn 1990, the Cameroon government passed Act No. 90/035 to prohibit birth control education.[4] Reports found that abortion and secretive reproductive health services were widespread and made up 40 percent of OB/GYN emergency admissions.[4] However, most access to abortion clinics were limited to urban centers within the country.[4] References1. ^{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3iNmQIP7S2AC|title=Abortion Policies: A Global Review|last=Division|first=United Nations Dept of Economic and Social Affairs Population|last2=population|first2=Nations Unies Division de la|date=2001|publisher=United Nations Publications|isbn=9789211513653|language=en}} {{Abortion in Africa}}{{Human rights in Cameroon}}{{Cameroon topics}}{{Abortion-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web|url=https://www.guttmacher.org/about/journals/ipsrh/2003/03/although-abortion-highly-restricted-cameroon-it-not-uncommon-among|title=Although Abortion Is Highly Restricted in Cameroon, It Is Not Uncommon Among Young Urban Women|date=2005-09-08|website=Guttmacher Institute|access-date=2016-06-21}} 3. ^1 {{cite journal|jstor=3181117|title=Abortion Risk and Decisionmaking among Young People in Urban Cameroon|first=Anne-Emmanuèle|last=Calvès|date=2002|publisher=|volume=33|issue=3|pages=249–260}} 4. ^1 2 {{Cite journal|last=|first=|date=1999|title=Women's Reproductive Rights in Cameroon: A Shadow Report|url=http://www.reproductiverights.org/sites/default/files/documents/sr_cam_1199_eng.pdf|journal=Center for Reproductive Law and Policy|doi=|pmid=|access-date=21 June 2016}} 3 : Health in Cameroon|Abortion by country|Abortion in Africa |
