NCT ID NCT07650071
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why some women have abortions later in pregnancy (14-16 weeks) at Avignon Hospital in France. Researchers want to understand the personal, social, and healthcare barriers these women face. By interviewing 30 women, they hope to find ways to improve access to care and prevent future late abortions.
