what is the effects of abortion to the women itself?
Question:
Answers:
Physically, if the abortion is performed in a sensible medical manner by adequately trained personnel, the effect is nil. From the body's perspective, it is a sort of miscarriage. the problem is that poorly done abortions are very likely to become septic -- meaning a system wide infection. Even today, such infections are highly dangerous. One statistic widely quoted is that 1 in 5 properly treated, with state of the art medicine, septic patients die. The uterus is a highly vascular organ, bleeds easily, and the bleeding is not easy to stop in many cases.
No abortion is safe if not performed by properly trained and equipped personnel.
Other effects are mostly social and psychological. many people have, or declare themselves to have, an interest in almost every pregnancy. Fathers, parents, friends, co-workers. If they all disapprove of a decision to have an abortion, the pressure on the woman is likely to be high and to cause unhappiness. In addition, pregnancy is regarded by many (religions, some political movements, .) as a matter of important public policy. Non-pregnant women are stigmatized and married pregnant women lionized. Some countries subsidize children to encourage population growth, some political movements regard pregnant women (usually only the 'right sort') as a public resource. The Nazis, for instance, were quite serious about pregnant Aryan women and about raising their children in a suitable Nazi environment.
Aside from special circumstances as noted above, childbearing is a specially important female function without which the species will not survive. Failing at this (by miscarriage, or abortion, or infertility) is sometimes cause for despair and depression.
There is a claim, mostly from those opposed to abortion, that an abortion will inherently lead to despair depression and a ruined life. While this may occur, it is clear from the American experience, and from other country's as well, that this is certainly not true for all. Infanticide is a still more extreme method of population control and has been widely practiced in cultures throughout the world. Not even in those cultures was a blighted life for the mother the result of the loss of an infant either accidentally (eg, disease) or deliberately (eg, infanticide).
Nevertheless, it is a large step with potentially large consequences and should not be undertaken casually. Depending on where you live, and on social/religious attitudes there and among your family and friends, a decision either way will be either harder or easier. It is an intensely personal problem, with society and religion often eager to override a personal decision.

I have had eight, no lie. And after each of them I felt tremendous relief. I was just soooo glad to not be pregnant.
Being pregnant when I did't want to be was the most stressful horrible thing I have ever felt.
I fainted while they wre doing one of them, it was just so painful.
No other things from them at all. Except the most huge relief!
I would like to know also.

NEVER HAD ONE TO BE QUITE HONEST, BUT RECENT RESEARCH AND STUDIES ON WOMEN WHO HAVE HAD ABORTIONS IN THE PAST SUFFER GREAT DEPRESSION LATER ON IN LIFE, AND TEND TO BE BORDERING ON MANIC DEPRESSIVE, CAN ALSO BECAME SUICIDAL. BUT IT IS A DECISION THAT ONLY YOU CAN MAKE, SORRY HONEY.

WATCHED A DOCUMENTARY ON CABLE T.V ONCE.
The voluntary or necessary cessation of life for one.
If properly, successfully accomplished it might not have any adverse effects relating to future pregnancy, but will most certainly have an impact on the "why and what if" factors, after the fact, no matter the choice or requirement for health and safety issues.
Obviously it is critical at times to the health and well being of the pregnant woman to have it done. It is also possible that an abortion is something deemed necessary for a girl, underage, who isn't in a position to be a mother. It should be, though isn't always, a well considered option.
In every case I cannot imagine a more personal, stressful, possibly life long memory, no matter.

Depends on the week of pregnancy it is done. The sooner the better in terms of not affecting the lady. You get all sorts of scary stories about it, but facts are lots of women abort for many reasons and they don“t get cancer, kill themselves over depresion or have troubles to be pregnant again, that is, however, if the medical procedure is carried out by a skilled doctor on a real hospital. Major risks from abortion are related to the low quality facilities they are carried on usually.
i think she would feel guilty to her whole life that she has stoped a tiny life to see the world who itself was a part of her own. if anyone don't wana a child then one should take precaution but one has no right to kill forthcomer
post-par tum depression, some become suicidal,grieve loss of baby,guilt, sadness. If you go to the links below, you will see the psychological and medical effects that will have to be dealt with and will not be easy to over come.
I hope this helps.

I think a lot would depend on your state of mind and reasons for getting the abortion. I get really upset with the people who try to spread all these horror situations (like you will have miscarriages and never be able to have a baby, you will be depressed and suicidal). If you had an abortion because someone forced you to and didn't want to have it, you would certainly have emotioinal problems. If you felt guilty about it, you would probably have some emotional problems. If you felt this was the wisest thing for your situation, you might have some emotional problems and you might feel consideralbe relief. You might even do both. It's all up to your state of mind.
As for long term problems or problems getting or remaining pregnant in the future, that's not a fact. Remember, you can find statistics that can be slanted to reveal whatever you want it to reveal. For instance, you can say 20% of the people have problems. Well, that if your sampling is 100 people, that's 20 of them. If it's 2000 people, that's only 200 of them.
Abortion is an emotional issue. It is not something you should take lightly. It's not a form of birth control (this could be directed to the woman who said she has had 8 abortions). I would advise any woman who has one to get counseling afterward. You may in the future wonder about the what the baby would have been, what he or she would have been like, you may think of it around what would have been your due date. This does not mean you will regret your decision if you felt it was best for you at the time.
This is a very personal decision for the woman to make. Like I said, don't take it lightly, but also, disregard all those horror stories and accusations of murder. That is their opinion, and it's just that, an opinion.
I've tried to answer this with no bias either way because I do not feel that I have the right to tell another woman what is right for her. In fairness, I am pro-choice, but that does not mean I support abortion or would choose it for myself. If you are considering abortion, just don't let someone scare you into a decision that's not right for you.
