Abortion affects every woman differently. Some women feel it’s the best option for an unexpected pregnancy, but it’s crucial to understand the potential effects it can have.

Choices of the Heart is here to help you understand each pregnancy option and make an educated decision. Schedule a no-cost, confidential appointment today to learn how we can help.

How Could Abortion Affect You?

Before making a decision, it’s best to weigh each option. If you’re leaning toward abortion, understanding the potential mental health effects is a key step.

It’s impossible to predict how exactly you’ll feel after an abortion. Some women feel relief, while others feel sadness. Perhaps these feelings occur right after the procedure or may surface later.

One study found that abortion does contribute to mental health problems for at least some women. These mental health problems can include:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Grief
  • Feelings of loss

Certain risk factors can make you more likely to experience these effects, including a history of pre-existing mental health issues. If you’re already struggling emotionally, there is a chance abortion could worsen those problems.

Speaking with a trusted healthcare provider about any concerns can help you understand your unique situation and get your questions answered.
