<strong>Information</strong> <strong>Regard<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>Abortion</strong> <strong>Law</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Brazil</strong><br />

Though term<strong>in</strong>ation of pregnancy is illegal <strong>in</strong> some countries, majority of<br />

countries permit crim<strong>in</strong>al penalties to be waived or lessened <strong>in</strong> specific<br />

circumstances that <strong>in</strong>cludes most often where the life or health of the pregnant<br />

woman is endanger , or where the pregnancy is the result of rape or <strong>in</strong>cest.<br />

Similar is the law of abortion <strong>in</strong> country like <strong>Brazil</strong>.<br />

The <strong>Abortion</strong> law states:<br />

Term<strong>in</strong>ation of pregnancy <strong>in</strong> <strong>Brazil</strong> is banned, except <strong>in</strong> three situations, and holds<br />

severe penalties for the consent<strong>in</strong>g woman and the abortive provider. <strong>Brazil</strong> is the<br />

only country where large proportions of Catholics are found than any other<br />

country <strong>in</strong> the globe. The Vatican has also voiced its conflict to any legal reform<br />

permitt<strong>in</strong>g improved access to abortion or to purchase abortion pills onl<strong>in</strong>e.<br />

There are simply three situations <strong>in</strong> which pregnancy term<strong>in</strong>ation can be officially<br />

performed <strong>in</strong> <strong>Brazil</strong>:<br />

Rape or <strong>in</strong>cest<br />

The life of pregnant female is at risk<br />

The fetus has anencephaly<br />

Exceptions to the law:<br />

<strong>Brazil</strong>ian President signed a law guarantee<strong>in</strong>g regimen which <strong>in</strong>cludes emergency<br />

contraception named Plan B pill for rape victims <strong>in</strong> public hospitals, despite of<br />

strong opposition from orthodox religious who have faith that it will lead to the<br />

decrim<strong>in</strong>alization of pregnancy term<strong>in</strong>ation.<br />

In 2013, a new law <strong>in</strong>troduced that a women was no longer compelled to prove<br />

her allegation of rape before be<strong>in</strong>g able to access abortive services. The mean<strong>in</strong>g<br />

of sexual violence was also extended by the 2006 law to add spousal rape which<br />

earlier had no clear legal stand<strong>in</strong>g. It means that wives who are sexually assaulted<br />

by their husbands have the right to legally abort the pregnancy.<br />

Any woman who has become pregnant through rape is able to submit her request<br />

to abort (<strong>in</strong> writ<strong>in</strong>g). Cl<strong>in</strong>ic or hospital staff must facilitate her access to all<br />

appropriate services on the day she appeals.<br />

Anencephaly:<br />

If an embryo is confirmed as suffer<strong>in</strong>g anencephaly, a confirmation <strong>in</strong> writ<strong>in</strong>g will<br />

be required from three physicians. This verification needs to be submitted along<br />

with the request for pregnancy term<strong>in</strong>ation <strong>in</strong> writ<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

The procedure:<br />

Abortive procedure must be carried out by a doctor only <strong>in</strong> the event of rape or<br />

<strong>in</strong>cest, approval from the pregnant woman or from her legal representative is<br />

mandatory. Depend<strong>in</strong>g on the reason for the term<strong>in</strong>ation, affirmation from one or<br />

more physicians may also be required.<br />

Even though the procedure will differ between facilities, the basic steps to be<br />

followed:<br />

A consumption meet<strong>in</strong>g is organized with a social worker who reports the<br />

patient’s private details and conditions surround<strong>in</strong>g the request for a<br />

term<strong>in</strong>ation of pregnancy.<br />

The patient is then referred to a physician and sometimes a psychologist<br />

(there are usually a few days between meet<strong>in</strong>g the social worker and a<br />

see<strong>in</strong>g a doctor).<br />

Upon meet<strong>in</strong>g the doctor, an ultrasound may be performed to confirm the<br />

length of the pregnancy.<br />

MTP kit (abortion drugs) is used to the cervix to soften it and expel body<br />

parts overnight. Several women experience spontaneous miscarriage at<br />

this stage.<br />

If the term<strong>in</strong>ation doesn’t occur naturally, the patient is taken to surgery<br />

the very next day.<br />

The process is usually performed via curettage and dilation rather than<br />

vacuum aspiration.<br />

The quality of post-surgery care varies though the patient is almost always<br />

free to leave the same day provided there are no complications.<br />

People can buy abortion pills only <strong>in</strong> limited circumstances.<br />
