Abstract:
SummaryThis study was conducted in 1985 in Asunción, Paraguay, 6 years after the closure of the state supported family planning services. Data from national surveys in 1977 and 1987 permit a comparison of sources of contraceptive supplies before and after the elimination of government support for family planning. The purchase of pseudo-abortifacients from private pharmacies was used as an indication of induced abortion. After the loss of government clinics, it is suggested that some women turned to pharmacists to obtain pseudo-abortifacients when faced with unwanted pregnancy. There is an indi

Abstract:
The use of abortifacient plants is commonly practiced among the natives in Nigeria as an aborting agent of pregnancy. Abortifacient substances are either chemical or physical capable of inducing abortion. One of the plants that is being used is <em>Annona senegalensis</em>, although it is primarily used as food. Its abortifacient activity is not scientifically validated. This study investigated the abortifacient activity of the leaf extract. The aqueous leaf extract of <em>Annona senegalensis</em> pers was screened for abortifacient activity in thirty (30) female albino rats at the doses of 10

Abstract:
Abstract This paper examines the double life of misoprostol in Brazil, where it is illegally used by women as an abortifacient and legally used in obstetric hospital wards. Based on my doctoral and post-doctoral anthropological research on contraception and abortion in Salvador, Bahia, this paper initially traces the “conversion” of misoprostol from a drug to treat ulcers to a self-administered abortifacient in Latin America, and its later conversion to aneclectic global obstetric tool. It then shows how, while reducing maternal mortality, its use as an illegal abortifacient has reinforced the

Abstract:
Introduction. Chemical toxicity in the U.S. affects approximately 40% of the nation's 80 million workers who are exposed to toxic chemicals on a full or part-time bases. In 1980, about 40% of this workforce was comprised of women of childbearing ages. Considering such figure of a large number of women exposed to chemical toxins, it is a wonder that we have not had an epidemic of birth defects and organ abnormalities. A study has pointed that about 40% to 50% of all conceptions are eliminated before week 20 of gestation by way of a safety mechanism which helps to reduce the number of birth defe

Abstract:
Abortion is a highly debated topic. In the United States and other developed countries, the vast majority of abortions performed are done in a clinical setting or under the supervision of clinical staff. However, clandestine abortions still occur. Previously published reports have described clandestine abortions performed using crude and often dangerous methods. In the United States, published reports on the clandestine use of medications for abortions is rare. We report a series of cases in which maternal use of misoprostol and or a combination of misoprostol and mifepristone was used or susp

Breakdown of a native chlamydial vaccine against ovine enzootic abortion (OEA), coupled with the identification of the protective capacity of the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) of <I>C. psittaci, </I>has encouraged research into the use of recombinant forms of MOMP in a third generation OEA vaccine. The prospect of testing all recombinant forms of MOMP in pregnant sheep trials is a daunting one, both in terms of time and money. To circumvent these problems, it was decided that a model system would be required to assess the efficacies of recombinant MOMP constructs. The initial model devel

Abstract:
Neospora caninum is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite, which is the most frequently diagnosed abortifacient in dairy cattle in the UK and is a leading cause of abortion worldwide. Neospora caninum infection in early gestation is associated with foetal death whereas in late gestation, infection can result in the birth of asymptomatic, but persistently infected animals. How the parasite kills the foetus is not fully understood, but it has been suggested that more mature foetuses are better able to mount a stronger immune response to control parasite multiplication and dissemination.

Abstract:
This study examined the phenomena of herbal contraceptives and abortives and their use among enslaved women in the United States and the Caribbean. The conclusions that can be drawn from the research are that some women did choose to use herbal birth control and abortives. There is evidence to suggest that this use may have been directly used as a uniquely female means of resistance to slavery. It is also indicated that the more African cultural retentions there were in other areas of the lives of these women, the more likely that this phenomena would be employed as well.

Owing to the extensive body of published literature on these indications, misoprostol is now widely used for several reproductive health indications.
