Abortion Rate Per 1000 Women: 64

Vietnam stands first among the countries with high abortion rates, estimated at 1.2-1.6 million annually, far surpassing the reported 300,000 cases. It holds the world’s second-highest abortion rate, influenced by factors like inadequate sex education, limited contraception access, and cultural son preferences. Despite being illegal, gender-selective abortions are common, contributing to significant sex imbalances at birth.
