Study Links Abortion With Depression, PTSD, and Drug Abuse

A new study from the psychiatric journal “Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences” recently published a study linking abortion with depression and anxiety disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder.

The study compared the women’s psychological well being with childbirth outcomes such as delivering the baby, miscarriage, or abortion. The conclusion of the authors is that “fetal loss seems to expose women to a higher risk for mental disorders than childbirth; some studies show that abortion can be considered a more relevant risk factor than miscarriage”.
