Abortion & Early Death
Are women who have abortions more or less likely to die young than those who deliver their children?
Correct Answer
Tell Me More
Women who have abortions are 45% to 191% more likely to die young than those who deliver their children. These datapoints come from the European Journal of Public Health, the Southern Medical Journal, and the American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology. Because association does not prove causation, these facts don’t necessarily mean that the abortion caused the early deaths, but many abortions harm women, all laws limiting abortion have exceptions to protect women’s lives, and nearly all abortions kill pre-born humans.
