Abstract

Abstract Introduction Access to abortion is questioned in the USA. The abortion debate crystallizes in the form of a confrontation between pro and anti clans. Is it possible to get away from this rhetoric and consider that the question of abortion is that of access to care? Abortion is a social fact described since Antiquity, for this reason, States have the duty to accompany applicants. Reducing the abortion debate to the dialectic of for or against is the linguistic maneuver generating emotional activation opposing human rights. Can scientific research be an explanatory factor for social constructions relating to abortion? Our study proposes to put into perspective the end of the decriminalization of abortion with gender asymmetry in scientific analysis in reproductive health, in particular concerning induced abortion. Objective to consider abortion as a social fact to put into perspective the abortion's right and the inequality of research according to gender Methods we conducted a literature review from 07/2021 to 06/2022 with the keywords men and abortion and women and abortion introduced on Pub Med: 86 articles are referenced for men, 10 of which are relevant. 1698 references for women of which 1310 are relevant. The criterion of relevance is the reference to induced abortion. Results this literature review shows scientific research in reproductiv health concerning abortion overwhelmingly in favor of women. The scientific literature studying the man whose ephemeral partner or not is confronted with abortion constitutes less than 1% of research on abortion. Remember in this regard that the man and the woman each participate equally in fertilization Conclusions Conclusions: this work questions the imperativ of an egalitarian scientific treatment for genders in reproductiv health and particularly on abortion. Gender iinequalities in scientific research could perform heteronormativ frameworks, generating power relations and discrimination in the construction of symbolic and social representations. This dynamic of socio-scientific inequalities crystallizes in the field of law, assigning the most vulnerable to situation that violates human rights The asymmetry of gender, namely the social domination of men versus the reproductiv power of women, has a strong impact on the developpement of frameworks for the scientific analysis of fertility and sexuality: the place of men, central to sexual health, with HIV, is on the contrary marginalized in reproductiv health, excluding the man from almost the entire reproductiv mechanism. Birth control has existed since ancient times, by this means, people match societies with the limited resources of the environment in order to create a sustainable world for all living species including the human species. The logic, the contraceptive techniques sometimes fail: forcing a person to have a pregnancy, which is physically, psychologically and socially constraining, which involves risks in particular for overall health, is a serious attack on the democratic principles guaranteeing people's freedom Disclosure No
