Update on termination of pregnancy

One in three women in the UK has had a termination of pregnancy (TOP) by the age of 45. Approximately 200,000 TOPs occur in the UK each year. In 2018 there were 205,295 TOPs in England and Wales, and 13,286 in Scotland. The provision of TOP services is a vital healthcare resource which needs to be provided. Education in this area is an important part of training in obstetrics and gynaecology. Whilst things are improving, there is still stigma attached, and formal teaching is frequently missing from the curriculum of trainees.
