Notes:

Official data may be incomplete.
Parenthetical figures are estimates, some of which are derived from reported data.
Some miscarriage data includes only stillbirths, some data includes known early miscarriages, thus this series is not a consistent time series.
Abortion rates may be based on a mix of national or provincial agency data and thus may not represent a consistent time series.
