*3.7.2 Number of abortions/miscarriage and term of delivery*

It was observed during the study that not much of a significant correlation was observed between number of abortions/miscarriage and term of delivery. In women who had undergone no abortion/miscarriage, the incidences of pre-term, full-term and post-term delivery were 13.02%, 85.20% and 1.77% respectively. On the other hand, in females who had undergone 1 abortion/miscarriage, 20.45% had pre-term delivery and 79.54% had full-term delivery. In women who had more than 2 abortions/miscarriage, 15.38% and 84.61% had pre-term and full-term delivery respectively (**Figure 10**).
