This undertaking could not have taken place successfully without the participation, support, and cooperation of a large number of individuals and organizations, both in Ukraine and the United States. Funding for the survey was provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) mission in Kiev, which was also the motivating force behind the activity. The survey was capably directed by Dr. Vladimir Paniotto, president of the Kiev International Institute of Sociology (KIIS). KIIS staff members in Kiev and elsewhere in Ukraine, particularly Elena Buslayeva and Victoria Zakhozha, did an outstanding job coordinating and implementing all survey activities. Dr. Howard Goldberg coordinated technical assistance from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Reproductive Health, which provided consultation in survey design, planning, questionnaire development,fieldwork implementation, data analysis, and report preparation. Important contributions were also made by many others working in the area of reproductive health in Ukraine, most notably at the Ukraine Ministry of Health and Johns Hopkins University/Population Communications Services. Finally, thanks go to the KIIS interviewing staff, who did an excellent job collecting the survey data, and to the many women across Ukraine who willing gave their time and cooperation to provide the information that will be so valuable to improving the health of women and children in their country. -i- Contributors This report was prepared by Howard Goldberg, Natalia Melnikova, Elena Buslayeva, and Victoria Zakhozha.

The approach highlights especially the meaning of socio•historical and religious factors in the emergence of the Mission view of Messianic Jewish women. Ukraine, the location of this study case, is an ex•Soviet country of about 48 million citizens with 100 ethnic nationalities. Members of the Jewish Faith form one of those ethnic groups. Following the Russian revolution in 1989 and then the establishing of an independent Ukraine in 1991, the country descended into economic disaster with many consequent social problems.

  • Family Planning and Reproductive Health in Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States
    Third edition 2000 (first edition1995, second edition 1997) From abortion to contraception Family Planning and Reproductive Health in Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States UNFPA Division for Arab States and Europe WHO Regional Office for Europe Women’s and Reproductive Health Programme Abstract The profound and rapid changes that have taken place in recent years in the countries of central and eastern Europe (CCEE) and the the newly independent states (NIS) has revealed a particularly disadvantaged group in these countries: women. The growing health problems and particularly the widening gap between women’s health in western and eastern Europe require the rethinking of social and health policies. With limited resources available, reproductive health services are increasingly being viewed as one appropriate mechanism for improving women’s health. Although most countries in the CEE and NIS report a growing interest in contraceptives, limited availability and cost remove them as viable options for many people. The level of reproductive health services to be provided should be determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the client and community needs and programme capabilities. As a minimum, reproductive health programmes should provide a broad range of family planning choices, STI prevention, safe abortion, safe perinatal, postnatal and antenatal care. This document is the third update of reproductive health data for the region since 1995. Targets for HEALTH21 Target 1: Solidarity for Health in the European

    ИКОНОМИКА НА ЗДРАВЕОПАЗВАНЕТО Фармакоикономически анализ на медикаментозния аборт в България Д. Маринов, Е. Григоров, В. Белчева, Сл. Джамбазов Pharmacoeconomic analysis of medical abortion in Bulgaria D. Marinov, E. Grigorov, V. Belcheva, Sl. Djambazov Резюме: Mедикаментозният метод за прекъсване на ранна бременност започва с идентифицирането на простагландините. През 70-те години много от развитите държави легализират аборта, което води и до развитието и активното прилагане на тази здравна технология в световен мащаб. Във фармакоикономическия анализ е използван методът разход-минимум, като се сравняват разходите по прекъсване на бременност на два от най-популярните протокола и режима на дозировка с наличните към момента на проучването на българския пазар лекарствени продукти и разходите при класически аборт. Отчетени са и вероятностите за евентуални усложнения. При еквивалентна ефикасност на двете процедури, прилагането на анализ от типа разход-минимум (CMA) е подходящ и логичен избор. Проведеният анализ установява, че медикаментозното прекъсване на бременността по протокола на Европейска лекарствена агенция (ЕМА) (Mifepristone 600mg + Misoprostol 400mcg) е с малко по-висок разход за пациент в сравнение с хирургичния аборт, ако процедурата се извършва през първия триместър на бременността (∆Разходи=+10,61лв.) и води до спестен разход за пациент по време на втория триместър на бременността (∆Разходи=-90,96лв.). Медикаментозното прекъсване на бременността по протокола на СЗО води до спестен разход на пациент в сравнение с хирургичния аборт, независимо от периода на бременността, в който се извършва процедурата (∆Разходи =-50,43лв в първи триместър и ∆Разходи = -156,60 във втория триместър). Медикаментозното прекъсване на бременността е неинвазивно, високо ефективно и безопасно, наподобявайки естествения механизъм на спонтанния аборт, като в повечето случаи води до спестяване на разходи и може да се разглежда като реална алтернатива на класическия хирургичен аборт.

  • Declining Fertility in Ukraine: What Is the Role of Abortion and Contraception?
    Declining fertility in Ukraine: What is the role of abortion and contraception? Nataliia Levchuk* and Brienna Perelli-Harris** * Institute of Demography and Social Studies at the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine E-mail: [email protected] ** Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Acknowledgements: We would like to thank Aiva Jasilioniene, Michaela Kreyenfeld and Rainer Walke for their valuable comments and helpful suggestions while conducting this research. 2 Abstract In this paper we analyze the changing relationship between childbearing and abortion in Ukraine, which has had one of the world’s highest abortion rates and lowest fertility rates. Using the 2007 Ukrainian Demographic and Health Survey, we examine changes in abortion before and after the dramatic fertility decline. We estimate event history models for first abortions as well as competing risks hazards by pregnancy outcome. Our results show that although abortion rates rapidly declined in the 1990s, abortions have impacted fertility by lowering second birth rates. On the other hand, abortions have been used less frequently for postponing first births, as is more common in developed countries. We also describe how this relationship has been maintained through the slow adoption of modern contraception. Thus, Ukraine represents a country with an unusual relationship between fertility, abortion, and contraception, and where low fertility has been achieved with little reliance on modern methods. 3 Contents 1.
