Community Comments

Overview
  1. "Yes, Misoprostol is distributed. My organization provides free Misoprostol pills in rural areas of Sindh. We provide Misoprostol for PPH, missed and incomplete abortion and medical abortion. We run mobile help lines, organize free medical camps, conduct information dissemination meetings, radio programs and free outlets for misoprostol. We have opened 10 family planning centers for information sharing about medical abortion and post abortion care.
    Access to Misoprostol is very difficult in rural areas, Women & girls in the rural desert area of Sindh have limited access & poor information on self-managed abortion with pills & self-injected methods for family planning.Poverty and restrictions on mobility preclude women from traveling, Pharma companies have low interest to supply abortion pills in rural areas, because of low demand. Additionally, the judgmental and stigmatizing attitude of pharmacist’s community and service providers and high cost of abortion are major barriers for women of our area. There is a need for safe self-administered menstrual health regulation and family planning." Muhammad Aslam Peace Foundation Pakistan - November 2022
