Obviously you didn't read the whole article -- try doing so.

This article has nothing to do with any breast cancer and abortion. This is about oral contraception and breast cancer..

People, please read the article before responding.. This isn't DU you know...

And I wouldn't call Baylor "Baptist". It used to be. But, Baylor is to Baptists what RINOS are to Republicans.

All hormones, particularly synthetic estrogen, greatly enhance tumor growth.
Anyone who adds to those naturally produced is putting herself at risk.
Also, the Baylor study on the ABC link did not end the debate, only muddied it.

This is completely off-topic, but just FYI, the methdology tends to be flawed in the studies that purport to debunk the abortion/breast cancer link. What they tend to measure is the risk of a woman who has an abortion vs. the risk of a woman who never became pregnant. They should be measuring against the risk if the woman carried to term, which is pretty universally acknowledged to lower the risk. After all, it's not possible to go back in time and "undo" the pregnancy.

These studies are just playing games with statistics, but doing so has a real human cost.

The World Health Organization announced on July 29th 2005 that Oral Contraceptions are a Group one Carcinogen....and has a 285% increase in Breast Cancer while African Americans experience a 600% increase...
Today The Mayo Clinic announces the same.....and the Breast Cancer aweareness campaign in Breast Cancer awareness Month is still UNAWARE....go figure...

Abortion and Breast Cancer Link is easy just look at the Breast Cancer statistics between Ireland and England since England Introduced Abortion in 1967 before their Profiles were identical..

Look at the increased number of Preeemies... due to past Abortions...

Talk to women whom have had abortions...they know what is real and unreal.
