ROMERO ZEPEDA, Hilda  y  ORTEGA MARIN, Blanca Andrea. Imposed vulnerability and systematic violation of the indigenous women rights in Mexico. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.4, pp. 933-946. ISSN 1684-1824.

Women’s rights recognition in Mexico has gone through a long way, accompanied many times by difficult experiences to make them true. The fights for the recognition of those rights date back to 1930. Orders, national and international laws have been signed ruling all the rights to which women have access. However, studies, surveys and reports prove the entire contrary. This article approaches the problems affronted by the indigenous women who live in Mexico for the recognition and respect of their rights specially the reproductive ones and, particularly, the imposed sterilization, that besides the violation of their rights to decide from the part of the institutions in charge of taking care for their health, causes them gynecological problems and their couples rejection.

Palabras clave : women’s right; genre violence; reproductive rights; indigenous women.
