15. As far-fetched as it sounds right now,
I can actually envision that happening in the not-too-distant future. Thank God I had a hysterectomy a few years ago at 37! Ceausescu did, indeed, have similar reproductive controls, but I don't believe even he went as far as to require something like this, although I could be wrong. I do know that he tightly controlled women and their fertility and absolutely forbade abortion, making even "underground" abortions extremely difficult to get. This is why there were so many orphans and orphanages in Romania. He may have required hospitals to report miscarriage rates and those who had them, and things like that.
