title: [Factors associated with the seeking of legal induced abortion services in Mexico City in 2010].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To identify factors associated with the seeking of the legal-interruption-pregnancy (LIP) services in Mexico City.
  
  
  METHODS
  We used a case-control design. Users who utilized the LIP were defined as cases, while users of the antenatal care service with gestational age 13 or more weeks and who reported having an unwanted pregnancy were defined as controls. Logistic regressions were fitted to estimate odds ratios.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Higher level of education (OR=1.47, 95% CI:1.04-2.07), women's occupation (being student OR=7.31, 95% CI:1.58-33.95; worker OR=13.43, 95% CI:2.04-88.54), and number of previous abortions (OR=11.41, 95% CI:1.65-79.07) were identified as factors associated with the lookup of LIP.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In Mexico City context, empowered women with a higher level of education, or having a work activity are the users of LIP services. Strategies for improving access of women with low empowerment conditions are needed.
