Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence and determinants of induced abortion among women of the reproductive age group in Aykel town North West, Ethiopia. Method: Community based cross-sectional study was employed in Aykel town North West Ethiopia, from August to September 2018. A systematic random sampling technique was used to recruit a total of 422 reproductive-aged women during the study period. Binary logistic regression model fitted to identify factors associated with induced abortion. Adjusted odds ratio with 95%CI used to explore the strength of association between outcome and independent variables. Result: The prevalence of induced abortion was 14.5% with 95% CI (11.2 to 18.17). Age group of 15-24 years [AOR=3.10, 95%CI (1.116-8.543)], pregnancy status unwanted [AOR=3.1; 95%CI (1.292-7.322], not ever used contraceptive [AOR = 3.96; 95%CI (1.612-9.709)], parity [AOR= 0.37, 95%CI (0.164-0.823)], knowing induce abortion complication [AOR=2.24, 95%CI (1.104-4.551],partner primary educational level [AOR = 3.68, 95%CI (1.082-12.528)] were determinants of induced abortion among reproductive age women. Conclusions: This study revealed that the magnitude of induced abortion was high. Younger age, pregnancy status unwanted, had not ever used contraceptive, knowing induced abortion complication, and partner education level was positively associated with induced abortion. In contrast, parity negatively associated with induced abortion. Therefore, induce abortion intervention like contraception provisions need to focus young age group.
