Perhaps in your experience. Or they say they don't regret it to defend what they did.
After working in a Pregnancy Counseling Center with women who had one or more abortions I can tell you that most of them did have regrets. Those that had had multiple ones weren't so upset because they were pretty hardened to the experience. As one girl said, "If abortion is so great then why can't I talk about it after it happened." She couldn't because it was such an awful thing and she was ashamed.
That is why many clinics offer Post Abortion Counciling to the woman, any family or friends (including men) who supported the abortion and now regret it or who didn't support it and now grieve over their loss.

I think you're wrong. And I know from experience.

The clients of a counseling center are by definition not representative of the general population. They wouldn't be there if they weren't unhappy about something.
