The woman must request the abortion before the health services with a free written request, by hand or computer. When the pregnant girl is under 12 years old, the father, mother or guardian is the one who makes the request. This ground is recognized in all entities of the Mexican Republic (Secretar\u00eda de Gobernaci\u00f3n, 2009, 2017 and 2014). <\/p>\n
