Shanghai, CHINA - This picture taken on July 29, 2009 in Shanghai shows an information board from the National Population and Family Planning Commission displaying various forms of contraception.
With more than 13 million abortions at registered clinics every year, China needs to step up sex education to better inform youth on contraception, state press said.
Nearly half the women who have abortions do not use any form of birth control, the China Daily said, citing Wu Shangchun, a division director at the National Population and Family Planning Commission.
