The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, an international women’s organization founded to protect the health and save the lives of women by educating and providing information on abortion as a risk factor for cancer, notes the following facts:

• Increased child bearing before the age of 25 is the best way to prevent breast cancer. Biological evidence shows that the third trimester process in pregnancy provides the only mechanism to mature a woman’s breast tissue into cancer-resistant tissue.
• A widely reported scientific review of 47 studies in 30 countries reported that breast cancer rates in developing nations could be cut by more than 50% if women would have more children and breast feed them longer.
• A woman who chooses to abort has an increased breast cancer risk in comparison to a woman who carriers her pregnancy to term.
• Before abortion was legalized in 1973, one in twelve American women developed breast cancer. Today, one in seven women develop breast cancer.
• Two medical malpractice lawsuits in the U.S. and two in Australia have been successfully prosecuted because doctors did not warn women about the increased risks of breast cancer and physiological harm resulting from abortion.

The Elliot Institute recently reported the following findings:

• The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse found in a study that women with crisis first pregnancies who aborted were more likely to report more frequent and recent use of alcohol and marijuana and cocaine.
• Researchers from the Elliot Institute and Bowling Green State University report that elevated rates of substance use among women who have had abortions may be linked to higher levels of anxiety, depression and unresolved grief.
