Abstract To explore the current situation of induced abortion among women of childbearing age in Shanxi province, and to study the influence factors of induced abortion. Methods: A cluster sampling epidemiological cross-sectional study was conducted in Shanxi province from July to August 2020. Binary logistic regression was used to explore the influencing factors of abortion. Results: In 10,744 subjects, 2,326 (21.6%) subjects had at least once of induced abortion. The main reasons for the most recent abortion of the subjects were lack of contraception (38.4%) and contraceptive failure (31.4%), while 20.4% subjects were given abortion for the medical reasons of "poor fetal quality". Multivariate stepwise logistic regression showed that the risk of induced abortion of women with advanced age or the child-bearing women was higher, but the risk of induced abortion for the medical reasons of the child-bearing women was lower. Conclusion: Women of childbearing age in Shanxi province has high induced abortion rate, so long-term contraceptive measures should be promoted and post-abortion family planning services should be strengthened for these women. Those women with advanced age, working as workers, or having ever divorced are the key population for induced abortion prevention. For childless women, special attention should be paid to induced abortion for medical reasons, and prenatal care services should be strengthened for them.
