[The sociomedical and risk-insuring protection of women depending on their reproductive function]

The role and importance of accomplished fertility compared to the total number of pregnancies is discussed from the point of view of working activities, medico-social insurance and amount of risk insurance indemnities of women during different phases of the individual reproductive cycle for the period 1985-1995 in Bulgaria. It is pointed out that the continuing unfavourable demographic tendencies are directly linked with the level of the reproductive function of women. Their individual behaviour in the accomplishment of that function is motivated mainly by changes of economic factors, optimal social insurance indemnities during different phases of the cycle, success in the control of pregnancy complications and especially increasing emotional acceptance of abortions, which sharply exceed births.
