title: Domestic violence and induced-abortion: report of three cases.
abstract: Domestic violence not only violates women's rights, but is also associated with adverse consequences ranging from physical injury to psychological morbidity. Several studies have associated domestic violence with risk of having an induced-abortion. The following three cases indicate that domestic violence may not cause unwanted pregnancy, but may be the reason that leads victims to resort to abortion.
