ABORTION AND BREAST CANCER LINKED

ABORTION AND BREAST CANCER LINKED

20 Year Old Findings Suppressed by Pro-choice Advocates


Since 1973 the rate of breast cancer among women in the U.S A. has nearly doubled. Abortion became legal in 1973. The rate has tripled since 1960. In Denmark, where abortion has been legal since 1939, studies show a 90% increase in risk for breast cancer in women who have had them. The studies overall have been so definitive that abortion proponents have suppressed the reports. A recent 1996 study was discredited by its own author because the studies did not agree with their pro-choice bias! Sadly, some women will likely not believe the same science that made abortion as a “procedure” safer (not safe) than those performed in the proverbial ‘back alley”, has now shown the a/bc link (abortion/breast cancer).

Dr. Joel Brind of Baruch College, a doctor of Epidemiology, broke the story in with his study in the U.S. in 1982. He states that 13 of 15 U.S. studies uphold his findings, as do 28 of 37 studies worldwide. Now the truth must out by way of the web until it gains the recognition it deserves, that which it must get to save needless suffering. Breast cancer in women is a very painful, often disfiguring disease. Not to mention DEADLY when discovered too late. What was Dr. Brind’s reward for discovering this life saving information? He was “disassociated” from two unpaid (volunteer) positions at N.Y. hospitals.
“However, in questioning Brind’s credentials, she noted that he has been fired from Beth Israel Medical Center and Mount Sinai Medical Center, both in New York. Brind, who held unpaid positions at both institutions, said the disassociations occurred after he wrote an article for an English publication on the abortion, breast-cancer link.”

In Fargo, ND an abortion clinic was sued in March, 2002 over lack of sufficient (any?) warning to their clients about the link between breast cancer and abortion. Why? : Because the clinic was distributing info that decried the reports of the link in the medical community. They have a dog in that fight. If it is important enough to women to avoid breast cancer perhaps they will choose the child, or be more careful sexually. See the quote and link immediately below.
‘A recent example comes in the form of a court case in Fargo, North Dakota. The Red River Women's Clinic was distributing a pamphlet to potential customers that said, "Anti-abortion activists claim that having an abortion increases the risk of developing breast cancer and endangers future childbearing. None of these claims are [sic] supported by medical research or established medical organizations."’ (Emphasis in original.)


Others have taken a milder approach, witness the exerpt below from a June 2002 web article : “Abortion, whether spontaneous or induced, before full-term pregnancy, appears to have no protective effect. In some studies, premature termination of pregnancy appears to increase breast cancer risk.” From Oncolink : Team Univ. of Pa. Cancer Center And this report points up the long known fact that bringing a baby full term and delivered actually reduces the risk of breast cancer. It seems clear that women are designed to have children, not abort them.

TI - Breast cancer risk: protective effect of an early first full-term pregnancy versus increased risk of induced abortion.

AD - University of Incarnate Word, San Antonio, TX, USA.
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: To examine the question of whether an early first full-term pregnancy (FFTP) protects against breast cancer and whether interruption of the pregnancy with an induced abortion increases breast cancer risk. DATA SOURCES: Published medical and epidemiology journal articles, books, scientific reports, news interviews of researchers, scientific journals. DATA SYNTHESIS: Continually increasing breast cancer rates cannot be explained by the American Cancer Society risk factors, which account for only 25% of cases. Induced abortion is a newly recognized risk factor and has been prevalent in our society since it was legalized in 1973. CONCLUSIONS: Early FFTP confers protection, while induced abortion confers risk. Most specific and controlled variables studies indicate 150% risk for abortions performed on women younger than 18 years of age. Studies have yet to discover the full impact of induced abortion because women who underwent legalized abortion in 1973 are just reaching ages of highest breast cancer incidence. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSES: Awareness of a controversial risk factor and its relevance to women allows nurses to include this information when educating and supporting patients. Specifically, nurses need to include questions on this reproductive risk when eliciting a patient's reproductive history. Nurses should further be aware of the emotional impact disclosure may have.

So I resubmit the story: Abortion Breast Cancer Link Swamped In Tide Of Cowardly Political Correctness. And again, dear reader, you must be the judge.

These facts were found on three different web pages each written by a different author :

Fact: Estrogens are strong growth promoters of normal and most cancerous breast tissue.
Fact: Most known risk factors for breast cancer are attributable to some form of estrogen overexposure.
Fact: Maternal estradiol (estrogen) rises 20-fold (2,000%) during the first trimester of a normal pregnancy. Fact: Abnormal cells are more vulnerable to cancerous changes than normal cells.
Fact: Pregnancies which abort spontaneously (miscarriage) usually generate subnormal amounts of estradiol; no increased risk of breast cancer is seen.
Fact: The incidence of breast cancer is dramatically increased in rats whose pregnancies are aborted.
