Resumen

This paper discusses specific obstacles to emergency contraception (EC) in Argentina, the 'grey areas' between contraception and abortion: potential users as well as health providers do not distinguish clearly between ordinary contraception, EC and abortion. Based on quantitative and qualitative findings, the study shows the need to intervene in providing the population and the health sector with information on EC, its mechanisms and accessibility, and the 'grey areas' that hinder an adequate distinction between regular contraception, EC and abortion.
