Abortion May Increase the Risk of Emotional Problems
Some women experience strong negative emotions after abortion.
Sometimes this occurs within days and sometimes it happens after
many years. This psychological response is known as Post-Abortion
Stress (PAS). Several factors that increase the risk of
Post-Abortion Stress include: the woman's age, the abortion
circumstances, the stage of pregnancy at which the abortion occurs,
and the woman's religious beliefs.
