In Argentina, abortion is generally not permitted. It is only completely legal in certain circumstances, which include: to save the life of the woman, to protect physical health, and in cases of rape. It should be noted that the Ministry of Health has not formally ratified protocols that permit abortions in cases of rape, so the legality is debatable, yet it appears to be fully decriminalized.<ref>[http://www.reproductiverights.org/press-room/argentina-decriminalizes-abortion-in-all-cases-of-rape Argentina Decriminalizes Abortion in All Cases of Rape]</ref> For all other reasons, including risk of fetal impairment, economic or social reasons, or availability upon request, are prohibited. According to the Pact of San Jose (1994), the right to life begins "in general, from the moment of conception."<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Argentina Abortion in Argentina]</ref> While some Argentine politicians have expressed interest in changing the abortion laws in the past, the Catholic Church has played a strong role in Argentine society, and no politicians have successfully gone forth with these plans.
En Argentine, l'avortement est en général interdit. Il peut être permis dans certaines circonstances, telles que: sauver la vie de la mère, protéger la santé physique, et en cas de viol. Il est à noter que le Ministère de la Santé n'a pas formellement ratifié les protocoles qui permettent l'avortement en cas de viol, sa légalité est donc contestable. Il apparaît pourtant complètement décriminalisé. <ref>[http://www.lepetitjournal.com/rio-de-janeiro/societe/62340-societe-avortement-le-debat-resurgit-.html]</ref>  
Pour toutes les autres raisons, incluant la malformation du foetus, les raisons économiques ou sociales, ou la simple demande, sont interdites. Selon le Pacte de San Jose (1994), le droit à la vie débute "en général, au moment de la conception." Bien que certains politiciens aient exprimé leur intérêt à changer les lois sur l'avortement dans le passé, l'Eglise catholique continue de jouer un rôle fort dans la société argentine, et aucun politicien n'a réussi à aller au bout de ses projets.


The penalty for an illegal abortion is up to four years in prison for the person who performed the abortion. However, in order to penalize the physician, the police must actually find a person performing an illegal abortion. This makes the prosecution rather difficult. There are reports of police wire-tapping the phones of at least one abortion clinic in order to prosecute the physicians.<ref>[https://news.vice.com/article/argentinas-doctors-perform-half-a-million-illegal-abortions-a-year-but-legalization-still-seems-unlikely Argentina’s Doctors Perform Half a Million Illegal Abortions a Year, But Legalization Still Seems Unlikely]</ref>
