Millions of women believe that abortion is the answer to their unplanned pregnancy. They are often advised that if they have the termination procedure, they will never have to think about the pregnancy again and will be able to continue their lives as normal. However, if you have personally been involved in an abortion experience, you likely know this to be false. Ironically, as you attempted to dispose of your “crisis” or “problem” you likely gained an entirely new host of problems after your abortion.
After an abortion, women often experience a range of negative emotions and sometimes physical symptoms, and many struggle to navigate through them effectively.

- 84% said they were not fully informed
- 52% felt rushed
