Is it true that abortions may increase the risk of cancer?!


Question: If it's breast cancer you're referring to; they speculate that abortion can play a factor in it due to the high level of estrogen in our bodies while we are pregnant.

Estrogen is stored in our breasts and expelled through defecation and breast milk. When there's too much estrogen built up in the breast tissue it can create cancer cells.

With abortion - the return to a natural balance of hormones after a baby is born is interrupted. When you carry a baby to term and you breast feed - this naturally regulate the balance of estrogen throughout your body.

Abortion causes a disruption in the process your body had set itself up for. By suddenly removing the pregnancy; it leaves you with a build up of estrogen - thus leaving you with a heightened risk of developing breast cancer.

there does seem to be a correlation between abortion and uterine cancer but correlation does not necessarily point to causation. Many women who have had abortions SEEM to have a higher risk of uterine and ovarian cancer, but there is no direct causation proved as of yet.

Abortion shouldn't even be an option..Just think about it.

I'm not sure. Honestly they're not sure what does and doesn't cause cancer. I mean yea they know a few things like the sun causes skin cancer and smoking causes lung cancer but a lot things that they say causes cancer it's just being put out there as a warning so their butts are covered and they're not held liable.

i've heard that. also, a lot more miscarriages in the future when woman wants to get pregnant or unable to become pregnant or complications.

Some doctors say that it does, some say that it doesn't. There are other risks besides cancer, too. Some women die. Many women regret having abortions. One of my friends told me about a woman who watched her child grow up in her mind after having an abortion. Agatha Christie's book "By The Pricking of My Thumbs" features a character who has psychological problems brought on by having an abortion.
