Crude methods Kenyan girls are using to abort

NAIROBI: Cases of mainly girls taking concoctions or inserting sticks into the vagina illustrate the crude ways women try using to procure abortions that leave them bleeding profusely, says a midwife in one of the Nairobi hospitals located near a slum.

 

“We also receive cases of girls who have taken herbs, substances like kerosene or bleach,” she says.
