A new study exposes the link between abortion and suicide, showing that women who have had abortions are far more likely to attempt suicide than those who delivered their babies. This study shows us that abortion does not just take the life of an innocent child; it also often has catastrophic effects on the women involved.

Women with miscarriages or problematic pregnancies reported lower suicide attempt rates at 30% and 28% respectively. Women who had never been pregnant had a much lower 17% suicide attempt rate, and women who had only successful deliveries had the lowest suicide attempt rate at 13%.
