The New England journal Journal of Medicine recently published a study that clearly establishes non-existence of link between degradation of mental health among women and abortion
The study explains that if the birth may have an effect on the mental health of women, this is not the case of abortion. Thus, these findings are based on research by a Danish team that looked into the case of 265,550 Danish women who had never had mental problems until they become pregnant. According to Slate, the study on the subject has been conducted to destroy "a bit more the idea that ending a Pregnancy can trigger mental illness and shows that postpartum depression is a more important factor.
Thus, it would appear that women who gave birth were more likely to be supported so Psychiatric after the end of their pregnancy than women who had abortions. The Danish study is not the only one to have been done on the subject. In fact, Slate reports that in 2008, the American Psychological Association had conducted a study which concluded that "there is no credible evidence that an abortion was awarded after a non-desired pregnancy itself causes problems Mental Health Association adult women. "Associations and anti-abortion groups refute the findings of this study, explaining that the effects of abortion on women's mental health may appear several years after the decision.
