Introduction: The goal of this research is to learn the opinions and attitudes towards pregnancy interruption among Mental Health professionals in Argentina, taking into account the current Congress debate. In order to achieve the goal, the research team designed a questionnaire applied among mental health providers at the XXXIII Argentinian Psychiatry Congress, Asociación de Psiquiatras Argentinos (APSA). Results: 91.8% of the participants responded to be informed on current parliamentary discussion on voluntary pregnancy interruption (termination). 83.5% of Mental Health providers who answered the survey agree to decriminalize abortion. Conclusions: Given that the consequences of changing the current legislation would have an impact in Public Health, we believe that these results should be taken into account in the current debate.
