There is no official data on the cost of clandestine abortions in Uganda. In 2003, an abortion was estimated to cost $25-$88 if it was performed by a doctor or $14-$31 if it was performed by a nurse or midwife. For women who went to traditional healers, it was estimated that they paid $12-$34. For women who self-induced abortions, the cost was typically $4-$14. However, this information is now more than a decade old, so you can expect that the prices have changed. | There is no official data on the cost of clandestine abortions in Uganda.
