    All conduct, acts or omissions by health personnel who directly or indirectly, in the public sector and the private, affects the body and reproductive processes of women, expressed in a deal dehumanized obstetric violence is considered an abuse of medicalization and pathologizing of natural processes. A clear example of obstetric violence is when women at delivery are reviewed by a doctor and a group of practitioners, without asking permission, or respect for her modesty and without explaining what is happening and no privacy. In addition to many times they made comments mocking the patient. Violence against women is a state problem, since there are several rights violated, and also constitutes a public health problem, unfortunately by the State has not spread the rights of the pregnant woman, so you do not there is no penalty under the law to punish those who violate these rights. While it is true obstetric violence is a reality in our country, there is some difficulty for women to make their complaints, including lack of a standard, well that does not exist among women aware of their rights in relation to pregnancy care, childbirth, postpartum and post-abortion care. Obstetric practices are so naturalized violence among women who know they are violating their rights. The Ecuadorian State, through the creation of a rule that punishes the violation of the rights of women obstetric, guarantee the right to have to have all the information related to their treatment and the right to receive from the health personnel the best deal possible, given the limitations of sexual and reproductive health, ensuring equal access and quality of care regardless of socio-economic or cultural background of women.
