Results: The average age of the sample was 24.45 years. 584 respondents (46.50%) were without education. 316 respondents (25.16%) did not go to prenatal counselling at all, or irregularly. The most significant dependences were demonstrated within the following variables - between the time of onset of respondentsʼ problems and the presence of associated diseases, the time of onset of the problems and the number of spontaneous abortions suffered in the past, between termination of current pregnancy by abortion in respondents and prenatal counselling visits and between termination of current pregnancy by abortion and previous high-risk pregnancies.
