Abortion has no long-term health effects whatsoever. All of these myths about increases in risk for depression, breast cancer, infertility, etc. are exactly that—myths. Nothing about abortion is dangerous. It has a lower complication rate than wisdom teeth removal or colonoscopy.

A really accessible and comprehensive brief by the folks at @ANSIRH, specifically on the safety of medication abortion (abortion with pills): ansirh.org/research/brief…
If you're someone who is interested in reading the research, a lot of the longitudinal findings on abortion outcomes come from @ANSIRH's #TurnawayStudy, and they have a really wonderful annotated bibliography of the 50+ peer-reviewed publications from it: ansirh.org/sites/default/…
And if you're interested in learning more but reading research studies isn't your thing, #TurnawayStudy Lead Investigator Dr. Diana Greene Foster has written an absolutely incredible book on their findings: bookshop.org/books/the-turn…
And also, don't forget to support @TEAFund who started this thread! They fund abortions for folks in northern Texas, which takes even more $$$ now that the vast majority of Texans can't get abortion care in Texas or Oklahoma: teafund.org/donate
