Research shows that 14 percent of women in Britain were bullied by their partners either into getting pregnant or having an abortion . While 8% experienced pressure to become pregnant 7% of the women  were forced into termination of the pregnancy. The reproductive coercion is not a new phenomenon. It was a concept in a 2010 study in Journal Contraception.

Women should not be forced either to become pregnant or to stop a pregnancy  as having an unwanted baby is emotionally damaging and terminating one is the same.Carrying a child and going through pregnancy is not something women should be forced into. The maternal mortality rate in US is 9. 8 women for 1 lakh and every day 830 women die from prevent preventable causes relating to pregnancy and childbirth
