Abortion is a major cause of breast cancer. As a matter of fact, it's the single most preventable cause of Breast Cancer.

Do you know if any studies were done on a connection to breast cancer and miscarriages ..?? And/or taking birth control products.

I really can see the possibility of a link through abortion because the glands in the breast are some of the first to receive signals from the body that a baby is coming. When that is terminated "unnaturally" there might be some confusion within the system of the mother. I haven't read any of the reports - I'm just speculating.

Prove it! There may in fact be a link, but it is by no means "the single most preventable cause of breast cancer". I've known a number of women who have had breast cancer---none of whom had abortions.

That's an outrageous claim. I was diagnosed at 45, and had never even considered an abortion, much less had one. Didn't take BC pills either. When you make these kind of unsupported claims you cause distress to people who don't deserve it.

Not true! I am a pro-lifer, but the supposed link between abortion and breast cancer was the product of one study which has not been supported by subsequent studies.
