Over time, this country has shown reluctance in decriminalizing abortion in cases such as the one at hand, and in this way, it is how the right of women to have a dignified life is manifestly violated, which is only ensures by guaranteeing the right to health from its broad approach and, in turn, the freedom to decide on their own corporeality. The serious obstacles that arise so that a woman can, if she so decides, abort in the event that the product, once out of the womb, does not have any hope of life, as is the fatal anomaly in question, becomes a treatment cruel and inhumane or even worse in another form of torture. A conscious and also technical study of issues such as anencephaly in the product of conception, will make you realize the legal obstacles that the country has been incurring in, thus affecting the right to decide of women and all flanks that are transgressed by requiring them to keep a product, inside their body, that will be born, but will immediately die, forcing them to follow a ruthless, vile and unacceptable process such as keeping an intrauterine formation for an indeterminate time that once expelled has zero percentage of life.This article concludes with the need to include within our criminal regulations a section that allows women, who consider it so, abortion on the occasion of anencephaly in the product of conception and consequently that the State provides the necessary inputs. at the health system level for obstetric or general medical procedures that are required, safely and free of charge.
