Unsafe abortion remains a leading contributor to maternal deaths in Kenya. Even with existing legal provisions, too many women are pushed toward dangerous methods—simply because safe care isn’t accessible when they need it. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

In 2023, 16.4% of women who underwent abortions in Kenya developed serious health complications. These included life-threatening infections, hemorrhage, and uterine injuries—almost all of which are preventable with accurate information. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Around 1.4% experienced the most severe outcomes: organ failure, coma, or death. These aren’t isolated tragedies—they reflect a systemic neglect of women’s health and rights. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

More women are surviving unsafe abortions today due to increased use of medication abortion (MA). But survival is not the goal. Women deserve to access safe, respectful care long before danger enters the picture. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Unfortunately, fear and misinformation still drive women to hospitals—even after safely using MA—just for reassurance. Some are misinformed; others are scared. This is why clear guidance and follow-up support are non-negotiable. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

While 26% of these women want to get pregnant again soon, the rest lacked options, counseling, or a choice of methods. Informed consent matters. So does method availability. Women must leave care with autonomy, not just bandages. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Yet there’s a proven way forward. Medication abortion, endorsed by the WHO, is safe and effective in over 95% of cases. What women need is access, accurate instructions, and providers who are trained and supported. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Women are not dying because abortion is illegal. They’re dying because even where it’s legal, care is blocked by stigma, silence, and fear within the health system. #LetTheDataSpeak | #ListenToWomen

Of those women, only 26% actually wanted to conceive again soon. The rest left without real choices—denied information, options, or respect for their autonomy. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

The barriers to care are everywhere: high costs, poor infrastructure, lack of transport, stigma, and even childcare responsibilities. Safe abortion isn’t just about medical supplies—it’s about addressing every obstacle between a woman and her care. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

We can reduce harm by providing accurate information, training healthcare providers properly, and making safe methods accessible to those who need them. @lasterbosire @wwangechi_leah Ministry of Health #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Abortions in Kenya aren’t always hidden. Women often involve trusted friends, partners, or health workers. The myth of secrecy is false—it’s not the women who are silent; it’s the system that silences them. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen

Our health system spends billions treating complications that could be avoided with safe, timely abortion access. Investing in prevention isn’t just ethical—it’s also cost-effective. #LetTheDataSpeak #ListenToWomen
