title: [Psychological aspects of abortion].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To propose recommendations for women's counseling in abortion request and the psychological experience of orthogenic teams.
  
  
  METHODS
  Bibliographic search in the Medline database, PubMed, Cochrane Database Library, EM Premium bases, ENT Unistra and Cairn from 1990 to 2016.
  
  
  RESULTS
  During the pre-abortion consultations, it is recommended to respect the choice of the woman on to see or not the ultrasound images (gradeC) and determine with her the time it needs to perform abortion (professional agreement). Women's satisfaction seems greater when they have the possibility to choose the abortion method (grade B). It is therefore important that both methods are available to all gestational ages (professional agreement). There is no relationship between an increase in psychiatric disorders and induced abortion (NP2). Meetings for professionals are useful and should, to the extent possible, be established (professional agreement).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Improving psychological support for women involve listening them and respect their choice. This also involves thinking as a team.
