The feminization of immigration in recent years and the association of this with the increment of the voluntary termination of pregnancy is a fact that is causing that the government and health systems of each community be wondering what extent health programs sexual and reproductive and the health professionals involved in these programs are adapted to the sociocultural reality experienced by immigrant women. This research aims to determine what factors influence the access of immigrant women, and especially Latin women, in family planning and reproductive health programs and the circumstances in which they opt for voluntary termination of pregnancy with emphasis on the weight of the cultural heritage that accompanies them during the immigration process, and which will be decisive in dealing with their health.
