الوصف: Objective To determine to what extent women adopted highly effective contraceptive methods after a legal abortion. Methods The data available during a period before and another period after liberalization of the abortion law were reviewed. The data gathering was incomplete and reliable only during certain periods, which were used in the study. Results There was an increase in the proportion of women who returned for contraception and in the proportion who used any method and long‐acting methods; however, no contraception was administered immediately after abortion and only 16% of all women treated started to use a long‐acting method during the period after the law was liberalized. Conclusion The proposed objective was not being achieved, the recommended guidelines were not being followed, and data gathering was incomplete. Good intentions are not enough and it is always necessary to evaluate the performance of a program. The results indicate that immediate reforms are necessary in postabortion contraception services.
