There is no such thing as a safe abortion. The truth is being withheld by Planned Parenthood and with about 1.4 million abortions done every year, thousands of girls are dying every year needlessly, because they are not being warned of all the risks.

In 1997, the top Scandinavian medical journal in the field of obstetrics and gynecology published that Finnish women, who have an induced abortion, had 3.5 times the TOTAL risk of dying as women who delivered in the 12 months after 'the end of pregnancy.' (Acta Obstet Gyn Scand 1997;76:651-657)

This ALL-CAUSE maternal mortality, comparing the relative mortality risks in the 12 months after the end of pregnancy for women who delivered versus those who had induced abortions, was easily computed from the data.

Not only has a doctor taken an oath to, "first do no harm," but he/she also has a legal duty to withhold any treatment that the doctor knows, or should know, is not in the patient's best interest.

This TRIPLING of a woman's one year risk of death can hardly be considered in a patient's best interest and invites a malpractice suit. These are elective surgeries and all risks MUST be told, but they are NOT.

How Planned Parenthood, the leading killers of human life that the world has ever known, can continue to say that abortions are safer than childbirth, is mind boggling.

The ALL-CAUSE mortality includes not only the immediate cause of death from an abortion, such as hemorrhage, perforated uterus and infection, but also from cancers, suicides, homicides and accidents.

13 of 15 studies done in the USA and 29 of 38 studies done worldwide have found that abortions increase the risk of breast cancer; 16 are statistically significant.

I will make this simple so that a 10 year old and even so called pro-choicers of any age can understand and thus in the future, they cannot claim ignorance.

It is estrogen, which is produced in the ovaries, that transforms a young girl into a woman. When pregnancy occurs, there is a SURGE of this hormone (2,000%) causing the breast cells to proliferate dramatically in the first trimester, in order to lay the foundation for the production of milk. These young growing cells are more prone to develop cancer.

In the second half of pregnancy, the estrogen levels RECEDE under the influence of such hormones as human placental lactogen. The immature cells then grow and differentiate rapidly into mature, specialized milk producing tissue. Once specialization has occurred, the cells are less likely to turn cancerous.

When the pregnancy is terminated by an induced abortion, these young growing cells (known as undifferentiated cells), and having undergone drastic changes, are now in LIMBO. They are no longer normal breast cells, nor are they capable of producing milk.

In plain English, these insulted cells (traumatized) have been hung out to dry. They are between a rock and a hard place. Scientists have known for years that any cell in the human body that has been traumatized, whether by chemicals, radiation, micro-trauma, or any other reason, would be especially vulnerable to cancer.

One must then surmise that what has been instilled in physicians' heads from time immemorial, regarding the vulnerability of abnormal cells, is no longer valid. To suit their political agenda, they would have you believe that an abnormal cell is NO more prone to becoming cancerous than a normal cell. This defies all scientific knowledge, as well as common sense and shows the depths they will go, to keep the abortion industry flourishing. Human life means nothing to them.

It has also been long known that a pregnancy carried to term protects against breast cancer. However, if a woman has an induced abortion, this protection is terminated.

The reason is because the proliferation of the undifferentiated, cancer vulnerable cells, by the estrogen secreted early in the pregnancy, no longer has the protection that comes from hormones released later in pregnancy, since the pregnancy has been aborted.

The estrogen/breast cancer risk has been known by doctors for many years, thus their reluctance to prescribe estrogen for menopausal women, especially those with any family history of breast cancer.

Manufacturers of oral contraceptives alert the public as to the possible link between their product and breast cancer. The induced abortion risk is greater than the relative risk associated with oral contraceptives.

Also, abortions increase the risk of preterm births in subsequent pregnancies, leading to low birth weights, and thus the child is more prone to develop physical and mental problems, including cerebral palsy. This is due to the damage done to the cervix and endometrium during an abortion.

Since abortions were made legal in 1973, breast cancer has risen 50% while other cancers remain the same. Also, preterm births have skyrocketed during the same time period as have miscarriages.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to join the dots and find the real culprit. In the Dr. Janet Daling (who by the way is pro-choice) study which was funded by the NCI (National Cancer Institute), it was found that abortions increased the risk of breast cancer on an average of 50 percent.

To this day, the NCI regrets the day they funded Dr. Daling and her group, as this study has always been absent from their webpage. Reason: They did NOT like the results.

But, the Daling study contained even more frightening results. If a woman had obtained her first abortion before she turned 18, the likelihood of having breast cancer increased by 150 percent.

Most ominous of all were the results for women who had an abortion before age 18 and who also had a family history of breast cancer. Twelve women in the Daling study fit that description. EVERY ONE of them got breast cancer before age 45. Let me repeat that. Every girl in this group developed breast cancer.

The L.A. Daily News quoted pro-choice Dr. Janet Daling stating, "I have three sisters with breast cancer, and I resent people messing around with scientific data to further their own agenda, be they pro-choice or pro-life. I would have loved to have found no association between breast cancer and abortion, but our research is rock solid, and our data is accurate. It's not a matter of believing. It's a matter of what is."

If there is also a history of breast cancer in the family, a teenager should NOT have an abortion, unless her LIFE (not health) is in danger, which is practically nil in this day and age.

Since 13 out of 15 studies done in the United State found that ALL abortions increase the risk of breast cancer, whether it's the first or later ones, it is mind boggling that the abortions clinics do not, at least, warn these teen-age girls, instead of throwing them to the wolves, for the sake of the billion dollar industry.

Even the NCI and the ACS (American Cancer Society) say that if a woman delays her first full term birth, she increases her risk of breast cancer. Naturally an abortion delays a first full term delivery but they just refuse to use that word "abortion."

According to a study done at Harvard, every year delay increases the risk of breast cancer 3.5 percent, compounded. If the girl was made sterile by the abortion, she enters a very high risk category: a childless women.

As mentioned before, a teenager who aborts her first pregnancy increases her risk of breast cancer 150% and if there is also a history of breast cancer in the family EVERY teenager in this category developed breast cancer in the Daling Study, by age 45.

Not only do the abortion mills not warm women of this deadly risk but they also fight all parental notification laws and who else would know if there's a history of breast cancer in the family, but the parents, especially the mother?
One has to wonder how this is possible in this day and age, but IT IS. Anything to make the Abortion Industry flourish. Human life means nothing to them. Only the almighty dollar.
