How many women die of a legal abortion vs. those who die from a wanted pregnancy?
If it’s true that lets say Obama wants to protect the health of the mother with an abortion, where are the stats to show us how dangerous it is to have an abortion? Apparently many women have died and suffer much emotional trauma even years later. One way to debunk this “health of the mother” theory is to show that abortions could be the source of much negative and riskful health. Not to mention that it is particularly “unhealthy” to an unborn child to end their life.
The risk of abortion complications is minimal; less than one percent of all abortion patients experience a major complication, such as serious pelvic infection, hemorrhage requiring a blood transfusion or unintended major surgery.
The risk of death associated with childbirth is about ten times as high as that associated with abortion.
Abortion has become not only the most common but also one of the safest operations being performed. The risk of death is as less 1 death per 1 million procedures.
There’s much higher risk of death not only during child birth, but being pregnant in general. On average it’s about 13 deaths per 100,000 births.
Most pro-life people support abortion to save a mother’s life
You are 12x more likely to die due to complications in childbirth.
The bottom line is that when an abortion has been conducted; legally, safely, professionally and providing there are no complications arising from it, there is no significant risk to the future fertility of the woman involved. A properly performed abortion will not affect the woman’s fertility.

APA TASK FORCE FINDS SINGLE ABORTION NOT A THREAT TO WOMEN’S MENTAL HEALTH
There is no credible evidence that a single elective abortion of an unwanted pregnancy in and of itself causes mental health problems for adult women, according to a draft report released Tuesday by a task force of the American Psychological Association.

Plenty of women don’t regret their abortion and plenty of them are not traumatized by them either. But you wouldn’t hear about them would you? No, they get on with their lives, have careers and families.
