Psychological care and mental health outcomes in women receiving termination of pregnancy in Rwanda: A cross-sectional study
The circumstances under which women seek ToP services significantly impact their mental health post service provision. The findings underscore the critical role of post-ToP support in mitigating negative psychological outcomes. Hospitals should screen depression/grief and offer psychological care support for women undergoing ToP.
