L'avortement est généralement interdit sauf si la vie de la femme est en danger. Cependant, le Bangladesh autorise l'aspiration si une femme arrête d'avoir ses règles.

Contraception

Note : il existe de nombreux moyens de contraception, comme les DIU (dispositifs intra-utérins ou stérilets), les contraceptions orales, les patchs, les injections, les préservatifs, etc. Pour une liste complète, cliquez ici.

Lois et stigmatisation sociale

Au Bangladesh, les femmes peuvent se procurer des contraceptifs hormonaux sans prescription. En 2015, on estimait que 64,2% de femmes bangladaises utilisaient une forme de contraception et que 56,7% utilisaient des méthodes modernes de contraception. Il était également estimé que 27,1% des femmes avaient des besoins en planification familiale qui n'étaient pas satisfaisants. Les méthodes les plus courantes de contraception sont la pilule contraceptive (32,5%) et les injections (14,1%). Les autres méthodes incluent la méthode Ogino (calcul des cycles) (5,2%), les préservatifs masculins (4%), et la stérilisation féminine (3,8%).[1]

Le Bangladesh est un pays majoritairement musulman (92% de la population). En général, les prêtres musulmans n'ont pas fait reculer les droits à la contraception, ce qui permit de très grands progrès dans les dix dernières années. Le pays commença à expérimenter la livraison gratuite de contraceptifs au porte à porte dans les années 1970. Les études ont montré que, lorsque l'on proposait aux femmes une livraison à domicile par du personnel de santé, il était beaucoup plus probable qu'elles utilisent une contraception à l'avenir. Grâce au succès de cette expérience, le Bangladesh commença à proposer la même chose dans tout le pays dans les années 1980. Depuis lors, le taux moyen de natalité du pays est passé de 6 naissances à environ 2,2 naissances par femme.[2] Comme rapporté par l'Institut Guttmacher concernant les femmes au Bangladesh, "Les raisons principales que les utilisatrices de pilules contraceptives donnèrent pour avoir choisi cette méthode étaient que c'était simple à utiliser, qu'une travailleuse de terrain leur livrait directement chez elles et qu'elles avaient des inquiétudes quant aux effets secondaires des autres méthodes de contraception (cité par 35-41%)."[3]

Contraception d'urgence (pilule du lendemain)

Important Notes: Emergency contraception may prevent pregnancy for three days (72 hours) and sometimes five days (120 hours) after unprotected sex. Take EC as soon as possible after unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy. If you don't have access to dedicated EC, oral contraceptives can be used as replacement EC, but remember the following: 1) Only some contraceptives work as EC 2) Different contraceptives require different dosages and time schedules to work as EC 3) You must only use the first 21 pills in 28-day packs and 4) They may be less effective than dedicated EC. For general information on emergency contraceptives, click here and here.

Laws & Social Stigmas

In Bangladesh, you can purchase emergency contraception (the morning after pill) without a prescription. There are no age restrictions. Generally speaking, you can obtain emergency contraception from the following people: field workers, NGO providers, pharmacists, nurses, and physicians. In the public sector, the lowest cadre of health care workers who are permitted to sell or dispense EC are auxiliary nurses. In the private sector, the lowest cadre of workers who are allowed to sell or dispense EC are community health workers.

Historically, the Bangladeshi government introduced emergency contraceptives into the National Family Planning Program in 2001. Between the years of 2003-2004, the government trained 44,774 providers and trainers in the handling of emergency contraception. The government effort was also in collaboration with the Directorate General for Family Planning, the FRONTIERS Program of the Population Council and UNFPA. However, there have still some critical issues to address. In most cases, EC was not found to be available as part of post-rape care in hospitals or police stations. This issue is worsened by the fact that, in most cases, staff in hospitals and police stations report having received little or no training regarding post-rape care and they received no official guidelines. As of 2008, EC was not listed in Bangladesh's Essential Medicines List. In 2012, EC was distributed via 5000-10,000 IPPF outlets in Bangladesh.[7]

You can watch a Bangladeshi commercial for Norix, an EC pill, here.

What to Get & Where to Get It

  • In Bangladesh, you can buy emergency contraception (the morning after pill) at pharmacies. There are two dedicated EC (progestin-only) brands that you'll find, which are Emcon and Postinor-2. You should take take 2 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex. Be sure to take the pills as soon as possible.[8]
  • You can also expect to see Norix and Emcon1 at pharmacies. These both contain 1.5 mg levonorgestrel, which belongs to a group of medicines called progestogen.
  • You can purchase emergency contraception online in Bangladesh through Goponjinish. They sell brands like Postinor 2 (80 Tk), Norix (55 Tk) and Emcon 1 Emergency (65 Tk). However, you should only purchase EC online for future issues; you shouldn't depend on the delivery service to arrive on time if you need emergency contraception immediately. When you need EC immediately, you should go to the nearest pharmacy.
  • If you can't access dedicated emergency contraception, you can take regular birth control pills as replacement EC. You can take Minicon (take 40 pills within 120). For the following medication, which is progestin-estrogen pills, you should only take the first 21 pills in 28-day packs. You can take Ovral (take 2 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 2 more pills 12 hours later). You can also take Combination 3, Microgynon, Nordette, Nordette 28 and Ovral (take 4 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 4 more pills 12 hours later).[9]

Costs

For online purchases, EC generally costs between 55-200 Tk, depending on the brand.

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs/STDs)

Important Notes - Learn about PEP and PrEP: If you think that you've been recently exposed to HIV (i.e. within 72 hours), seek out PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis). It's a month-long treatment to prevent HIV infection after exposure, and it may be available in your city. Take PEP as soon as possible. For more information, click here. If you are at risk of HIV exposure, seek out PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis). It's a daily oral pill that can prevent HIV infection before exposure. To learn more about PrEP, click here.

Laws & Social Stigmas

In Bangladesh, there are no legal travel or residency restrictions regarding STI status. However, there have been some potential cases of immigration determination based on HIV status. According to HIVTravel, "The Government of Bangladesh has no written policy regarding the entry of individuals with HIV/AIDS. However, according to anecdotal reports, some HIV/AIDS entry restrictions may exist for visitors to and foreign residents of Bangladesh. The Government of Bangladesh has informed the Embassy that a health officer or immigration officer at the airport who has concerns about an individual's possible HIV/AIDS status will make a case-specific determination regarding that individual's entry."[10]

In 1985, Bangladesh launched an HIV prevention program. This helped the country prepare for its first reported HIV case in 1989. Generally speaking, HIV rates in Bangladesh are very low at less than 0.1% of the general population. For at-risk groups, this number is a bit higher, but still rather low (.7%). Some of the highest rates of HIV infection were found in sex worker populations of the Hili with a 2.7% infection rate.[11]

Regarding HPV: "Data is not yet available on the HPV burden in the general population of Bangladesh. However, in Southern Asia, the region Bangladesh belongs to, about 4.4% of women in the general population are estimated to harbour cervical HPV- 16/18 infection at a given time, and 81.2% of invasive cervical cancers are attributed to HPVs 16 or 18."[12]

Abortion

Important Note: There are two main types of abortions: medical (also known as the "abortion pill") and surgical (also known as "in-clinic"). For medical abortions, you take a pill to induce abortion. For surgical abortions, a procedure is performed to induce abortion. For general information about medical and surgical abortions, click here.

Laws & Social Stigmas

In Bangladesh, abortions can be legally obtained. While induced abortions isn't generally permitted, according to the Penal Code of 1860, abortion is permitted under two conditions. First, if a woman's life is endangered by the pregnancy, she may obtain an abortion. Second, a woman may seek an abortion under Menstrual Regulation (MR), which has been under Bangladeshi family planning since 1979. MR is a procedure that uses manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) after a missed period. The woman can receive MR in a range of 8-10 weeks after the missed period, with specifications varying based on providers. In 2010, it was estimated that 653,100 MR procedures were performed in health facilities nationwide.

In Bangladesh, it was found that about two-thirds of MR procedures were performed in public health facilities, such as Union Health and Family Welfare Centres, which are the primary providers in rural areas. NGOs provide about one quarter of MR services and private clinics provide about 9%. However, many of the public health providers do not perform the procedure. In 2010, only 57% of the facilities that were expected to provide MR services actually did provide them.[14]

In 2015, the Population Council found that "In spite of wide availability of menstrual regulation services, women often resort to a variety of medicines for inducing abortion. The Bangladeshi Government is now supporting attempts to investigate the introduction of medical menstrual regulation in the public sector." The study found that "Overall 61.4% of women who used medical menstrual regulation found the method satisfactory, and 34.2% were very satisfied. Of the 3.9% of women who were not satisfied, most received services from rural facilities."[15]
