BackgroundIn Brazil, a Ministry of Health report revealed women who underwent an abortion were predominantly in the use of contraceptive methods, but mentioned inconsistent or erroneously contraceptive use. Promoting the use of contraceptive methods to prevent unwanted pregnancies is one of the most effective strategies to reduce abortion rates and maternal morbidity and mortality.

So the objective of this study is to determine the acceptance and selection of contraceptive methods followed by a post-abortion family planning counseling.
