 note = {The concerning number of pregnant women with no prenatal care has recently become a social problem. The unpreparedness of a mother for the upcoming delivery of her child does not only affect her, but the unborn child as well. In addition, this situation of unpreparedness also creates a huge burden for the medical facility that accepts the pregnant woman. In Osaka, a survey revealed that the number of pregnant women with no prenatal care peaked at 307 women in the year 2012, but declined thereafter. 
However, a survey in 2017 indicated there were still 191 cases of women without prenatal care, demonstrating the continued need for measures to prevent women from being in that situation. For this purpose, we searched the Japan Medical Abstracts Society (Ichushi) web database for literatureover the past 30 years with regard to our topic, and used the keywords “pregnant women with no prenatal care,” and analyzed the background factors that caused women to forego procuring prenatal care. The results of our study showed four common reasons why women do not avail prenatal care. At 37.1%, the most common reason of the four, was “economic reasons.” This was followed by “unaware of pregnancy” at 10.2%, and “unable to consult with anyone” at 6.3%, and lastly by “busy” at 4.6%. It must be noted that the literature of the past 5 years has shown that “economic reasons” is already declining as a significant reason, while cases where complex home environment, which include the reasons of “unaware of pregnancy” and “unable to consult with anyone” have started to increase. It cannot be denied that women are aware of the existence of public subsidies for pregnancy medical checkups, which is why the factor of “economic reasons” has started decreasing. However, it is apparent that women not receiving prenatal care for other reasons still continue to exist. It is therefore now clear that measures should be taken to address not only the economic state of women and its effect on their pregnancies, but also the need for provision of greater assistance to pregnant women with complex home environments.},
