Abstract

In recent years, there has been a great deal of public debate about the ethics of ‘later abortions’- those that are carried out in the second trimester of pregnancy (13–24 weeks), and especially towards the end of that time. However, relatively little research has been conducted into why women have abortions in the second trimester.

This study, conducted by the Centre for Sexual Health Research at the University of Southampton and the School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research at the University of Kent, aims to address this gap in the research by examining the reasons that women give for delays in seeking and obtaining abortions.
