Social networking has achieved unprecedented prominence in the daily lives of young people. It is estimated that users spend on average three hours to review their personal pages and their contacts. In this regard, issues such as sexuality, reproductive health, pregnancy and induced abortion are central to the agenda of the users due to access information and build it. From these data, an exploratory cross-sectional study with a nonrandom selection of 215 students at a public university was performed. A theory was proposed to explain the participation of young people on the Internet and eight dimensions were specified scenarios to anticipate social networks around the discussion of the legality of abortion. The results show that the accumulation of information is the indicative factor of reproductive participation in social networks (β = 0.49) while setting parameters siguieren acceptance of the specified ratios [χ2 = 24.13 (24 df) p = 0.000; GFI = 0.975; RMR = 0.003]. Referring to the state of knowledge, the contributions of this study were discussed in order to recommend further research and set limits to reproductive health policies.
