Reproductive coercion encompasses a collection of pregnancy promoting and pregnancy avoiding behaviours. Coercion may vary in severity and be perpetrated by intimate partners or others. Research is complicated by the inclusion of behaviours that do not necessarily involve an intention to influence reproduction, such as contraceptive sabotage. These behaviours are the most common, but are not always included in survey instruments. This may explain why the prevalence of reproductive coercion varies widely. Prevalence also varies when coerced abortion is included in survey instruments. When it is, it seems roughly comparable in prevalence to coercion intended to impregnate. The extent and nature of coerced abortion can also be derived from studies that explore the reasons why women access abortion, the relationship between abortion and intimate partner violence, and online blogs and forums. This narrative review of reproductive coercion examines the evidence and attempts to comprehend why coerced abortion has been neglected.
生殖胁迫包括一系列促进和避免怀孕的行为。胁迫的严重程度可能不同，可能由亲密伴侣或其他人实施。由于包括了不一定有意影响生殖的行为，如避孕破坏，研究变得复杂。这些行为是最常见的，但并不总是包含在调查工具中。这也许可以解释为什么生殖胁迫的流行率差异很大。当调查工具中包含被迫堕胎时，其流行率也会有所不同。当包括在内时，它似乎与旨在使怀孕的胁迫大致相当。被迫堕胎的程度和性质也可以从研究中得出，这些研究探讨了妇女堕胎的原因、堕胎与亲密伴侣暴力之间的关系，以及在线博客和论坛。本综述性研究审查了生殖胁迫的证据，并试图理解为什么被迫堕胎被忽视了。
