全球生殖健康政策以科学语言表述的假设为基础，即节育的技术方法优于传统方法，这些方法的使用比其他方法更现代、更“理性”，堕胎不应被视为节育的一种形式。这些假设在全球卫生界所获得的权威阻止了其他选择的考虑。我们对蒙古妇女节育经验的研究表明，基于此类全球假设的生殖健康计划未能考虑当地文化背景的生殖决策满足妇女的需求，因此存在严重缺陷。
Global reproductive health policy is based on assumptions, couched in scientific language, that technological methods of birth control are superior to traditional methods, use of these methods is more modern and "rational" than alternatives, and abortion should not be considered a form of birth control. The authority these assumptions have achieved in global health circles prevents alternative options from being considered. Our research on women's birth control experiences in Mongolia suggests that reproductive health programs based on such global assumptions fail to consider the local cultural contexts of reproductive decision-making address women's needs, and are therefore seriously flawed.
