Summary/Abstract: There are now clear contradictions and disparities in the field of family planning, sexual and reproductive health between the countries of Western Europe and those of Central and Eastern Europe. Therefore there are countries with the highest rates of abortion and mothers' mortality rates, and countries with the lowest rates, These differences come from different experiences, happy or not, in this field. Our country still has the memory of an unhappy experience of a pronatalist policy used as a political instrument of control of personal life and of the limitation of individual freedoms. After 1990, along legalization of abortion we have been going through a period of "transition from abortion to contraception", which presupposes the dialog between the important transformations in the medical field and the important changes in the mentality and behaviour of people.
