A new study followed more than 600 women who had abortions over a three-year period to determine whether they regretted terminating their pregnancies. The authors found no evidence of the “post-abortion trauma syndrome” touted by anti-abortion activists, writing that the “overwhelming majority” of women—95 percent—didn’t regret their abortions.
The study, which you can read in full at the link, is titled “Decision Rightness and Emotional Responses to Abortion in the United States: A Longitudinal Study.” (It was published in the science journal PLOS One; we saw it via Think Progress.)
