Abstract

The present study uses a descriptive-analytical method as well as library resources and well-justified documents to find an answer to this question that whether the potential of the jurisprudential regulations and the adjustment of the rules and regulations related to treatment-driven abortion in the Scandinavian area’s countries can be applied for bridging the legal gaps existing in Iran’s regulations or not? In response and despite our country’s regulations that are silent in regard of the unwanted, rape and incest pregnancies and others of the like and do not allow treatment-driven abortion while they may cause a lot of psychological problems to the mothers and their whole families, the regulations of Scandinavian area’s countries enable the resolving of a great many of the abovementioned problems through predicting and allowing abortion in such cases. In the meanwhile, the main and essential priority in the Scandinavian area’s countries for abortion at any time and even after the ensoulment and with the possibility of the infant’s life continuation outside the womb is the mother’s health.
