Abortion and contraception rules in Romania
SHAPE classifies family planning and abortion rights in Romania as restricted, combining abortion law and contraception policy.
Restricted framework
- Abortion: Abortion is available on request through 14 weeks, but hospital refusals and uneven provider availability create practical barriers.
- Contraception: EPF's 2026 contraception-policy score is 52.6%; the atlas records no national coverage recorded.
- Interpretation: The status combines legal rules and national policy access; regional availability and individual eligibility may differ.
