In the period 2000–2015, there was a decrease in the number of women by 88,432, or by 10.1 %. At the same time, registered abortion rates ranged from 14.7 to 10.7/1.000, respectively from 7.6 to 3.8/1.000 women of fertile age (P data are presented as an abortion rate of 1,000 births. In the observed period, the abortion rate in Croatia dropped significantly from 154.4/1000 to 76.6/1.000. Legally-induced abortions in 2015 were most common in the age group 30–39 (45.5 % of all abortions), and the lowest in the group up to 19 years (7.5 %).
