Abortion in Mexico is a controversial issue. Its legal status varies by state. The procedure is available on request to any woman up to twelve weeks into a pregnancy in Mexico City and the state of Oaxaca, but is severely restricted in the other states. As of April 2015, 138,792 abortions have been carried out in the capital city since its decriminalization (2007). The abortion laws and their enforcement vary by region, but in conservative parts of the country, women are routinely prosecuted and convicted for having abortions: More than 679 women have been convicted for abortion in conservative-leaning states, such as Guanajuato.
