Aborto causa mais sofrimento à mulher

Um estudo independente divulgado no British Journal of Psychiatry confirma aquilo que já se sabia: a prática do aborto aumenta o risco de problemas mentais.

Por mais que os médicos ligados à promoção o tentem escamotear, trata-se de um facto inelutável:

After adjustment for confounding, abortion was associated with a small increase in the risk of mental disorders; women who had had abortions had rates of mental disorder that were about 30% higher. There were no consistent associations between other pregnancy outcomes and mental health. Estimates of attributable risk indicated that exposure to abortion accounted for 1.5% to 5.5% of the overall rate of mental disorders.
