Birth control in Argentina is difficult to obtain despite a 2002 law ensuring access to it, and doctors shy away from offering legal abortions in the predominantly Roman Catholic country, the report said. Argentine law strictly limits abortions, with exceptions that include physical or mental risk to the patient and pregnancies resulting from rape. Researchers from Human Rights Watch have found that, in practice, women in Argentina have encountered barriers to making independent decisions about reproduction, obstacles that include lack of information, domestic and sexual violence, and economic restraints that the government had not adequately addressed. The group also found that public officials were not being penalized for failing to uphold the laws on the books.

No, but the government should support abstinence programs based on a dharmic religious perspective.

Absolutely, a woman's decision about pregnancy is solely her own. Whether she chooses to continue or terminate the pregnancy is entirely her prerogative. Let's be clear: at the early stages, we're talking about a cluster of cells devoid of consciousness or emotions. Erasing it doesn't equate to murder; it's simply a biological process. It's baffling why there's such fervent debate and judgment from those who haven't experienced the situation firsthand. Imagine being pregnant at a tender age due to abuse or assault; it's a life-altering event, potentially shattering dreams and prospects. Unless someone has walked in those shoes, they're in no position to dictate what a woman should do with her body.

It depends on the type of contraception.
