From Iran to Latin America: Must Prenatal Diagnosis Necessarily Be Provided With Abortion for Congenital Abnormalities?

The article examines the question of whether it is ethical to introduce and provide prenatal diagnosis and antenatal screening in areas where termination of pregnancy for congenital abnormalities is legally prohibited. The article explores the various reasons according to which people seek prenatal genetic information and the factors affecting their decision to continue pregnancy despite congenital abnormalities. It concludes that with a proper emotional support and cultural sensitivity it is ethically justifiable to introduce prenatal diagnostic tests and screening, and that taken as a whole, the benefits of such an introduction outweigh the general harm already associated with restrictive abortion laws.
