According to the shadow report, the law required a woman to obtain her husband's consent prior to undergoing sterilization, while the converse was not true; it was also illegal for a woman to give birth by Caesarean section without her husband's permission.
据非正式报告称，法律要求妇女在绝育前获得其丈夫的同意，反之则不然；妇女未经丈夫的同意剖腹分娩也是非法的。
