Abortion strongly linked to psychiatric hospitalization: new study of 1.2 million women
The risks associated with abortion remained elevated even after controlling for prior mental health, age, and poverty.

In contrast, among women without prior mental health issues, abortion was linked to only a 50% increased risk of psychiatric hospitalization.
