Abortion Increases the Risk of Premature Babies?

Published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the Canadian researchers found that women who had undergone a first or second trimester of pregnancy, when most abortions are conducted, increased the risk of low birth-weight babies and premature babies 35 and 36 per cent respectively.
 
Those women who had undergone more than one abortion had a 72 per cent increased risk for low birth weight and 93 per cent risk of prematurity.
 
The figures come from an analysis of 37 studies around the world, carried out between 1965 and 2001, to discover reasons why babies are born underweight and premature.

There are approximately 60 studies linking abortion to prematurity and low birth weight.

African American women abort at about 3 times the rate of white women in the USA. They also by far have the most prematurity and low birth weight babies...

So why don't we hear about this??

Let's get the word out!!

 
Woman Sues Abortion Site for Ruined Fertility (4/04) PDF Print E-mail

WOMAN SUES OH ABORTION SITE SAYING RU 486 RUINED HER FERTILITY – D. Powell filed a lawsuit against the Akron Women's Center for Choice, saying she had cramping and bleeding associated with a 10/02 pregnancy and went to the abortion site.

Staff there told her the pregnancy was not problematic, and she was given RU-486. Her condition grew worse over the next month until she was forced to go to the hospital. Diagnosis: a ruptured ectopic pregnancy in the left fallopian tube, leaving her unable to conceive. Danco Laboratories, the maker of RU-486 says the abortion drug should not be taken by women who have such pregnancies.
