title: [Causes of unwanted pregnancies and reasons for their interruption].
abstract: The paper report on of 207 interruptions, which were performed in our clinic from oct. 1st to oct. 31st 1974. The analysis of the interrupted cases resulted in  an average age of 26,3 years. 73,9 per cent of the women are married and 36,2 per cent were pregnant for the third time. The main causes for these not desired pregnancies lay in failure of Knaus' and Ogino's method of prevention (39,2 per cent). A great number of patients gives for the reason of interruption no wish for further children (35,3 per cent). At the end the causes of pregnancy and reasons of the interruption are discussed. The aim is to lower interruptions.
