A help center for pregnant teenagers opened this month in Kunming, capital of
southwestern Yunnan Province.
The center, first of its kind in Yunnan, aims to provide free abortions and
consultation for pregnant girls, aged 18 and under.
Liu Zhengqi, head of the Yunnan Obstetric and Pediatric Hospital, noted that
girls will receive free birth control within one week of having sexual
intercourse.
If they are pregnant and do not want to have the baby, they can receive free
abortion at the center. Teen pregnancy has long been regarded as a serious issue
in Chinese society.
