Abortion and social support.dta

Cross-sectional study conducted in three maternal health centers (Ollantay, Manuel Barreto and Daniel Alcides Carrion) located in Southern Lima, part of the Directorate of Health II, in Peru. Potential participants were women aged between 18 and 25 years, attended in at least one of the three aforementioned maternal health centers between March and May 2013. Study subjects were selected in consecutive order after verifying selection criteria. Illiterate women were excluded as the questionnaire was self-applied. Incomplete questionnaires, i.e. those without important variables, were also excluded from analysis.
