Objectives
The study aimed to determine the influence of religious and moral beliefs on contraceptive use, assisted reproduction and pregnancy termination in Polish women requesting a termination of pregnancy for medical reasons. Methods Between 1 June 2014 and 31 May 2016, women deemed eligible for a termination of pregnancy for medical reasons at a Polish tertiary care centre received an anonymous questionnaire comprising 65 items. A total of 150 completed questionnaires were collected. Results Of the respondents, 95% described themselves as Catholics, including 60% practising Catholics. The study revealed a discrepancy between respondents’ beliefs and the teachings of the Catholic Church: an overwhelming majority of respondents used contraception, and 79% were in favour of in vitro fertilisation and believed the treatment should be refunded by the state. Interestingly, 66% of the respondents who attended confession did not perceive abortion as sinful. Conclusion The study detected a considerable discrepancy between declared religiosity and individual interpretations of the commandments and teachings of the Catholic Church. Despite stating they were Catholics, most women did not perceive abortion as sinful and did not follow the teachings of the Catholic Church regarding the sacraments for deceased children. |
