  abstract = {{I}n 2010, following its approval by the {M}inistry of {H}ealth, the medical abortion combination pack {M}edabon (containing mifepristone and misoprostol) was made available at pharmacies and in a restricted number of health facilities in {C}ambodia. {T}he qualitative study presented in this paper was conducted in 2012 as a follow-up to longer-term ethnographical research related to reproductive health and fertility regulation between 2008 and 2012. {O}bservations were carried out at several clinic and pharmacy sites and in-depth interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of 20 women who attended two {MSI} {C}ambodia centres and 10 women identified through social networks; six men (women's male partners); eight health care providers at the two {MSI} centres and four pill sellers at private or informal pharmacies (who also provided health care services in private clinics). {A}lthough the level of training among the drug sellers and providers varied, their knowledge about medical abortion regimens, correct usage and common side effects was good. {O}verall, women were satisfied with the services provided. {M}edical abortion was not always a women-only process in this study as some male partners were also involved in the care process. {T}he study illustrates positive steps forward being taken in making abortion safe and preventing and reducing unsafe abortion practices in {C}ambodia.},
