What is the definition of abortion strictly in the Philippine setting? Oh yes, in the Philippines only. As i browse the internet, i see several and different definitions of abortion depending on the country and depending the time i.e. before and at present it is being referred to.


Why do you want to know? As the Philippines is a Catholic country I would image that any attempt to end the progress of a pregnancy at any stage would be regarded as an illegal act.

Despite the strict legal sanctions there are 100s of thousands of abortions carried out every year.
