Surgical abortion pre-term risk

BBC News - Surgical abortion pre-term risk: Women who have "surgical" abortions are more likely in the future to give birth to babies prematurely than women who have medically-induced terminations, a study suggests. The work was based on a large study of more than 600,000 women from Scotland and was published in the open access journal BMJ OpenIn addition, the research adds evidence to previous work showing that women who have induced abortions increase their risk of having a premature baby.

Editor: Also in the article -- "The risk of preterm birth after [induced abortion] is lower than that after miscarriage but higher than that in a first pregnancy or after a previous live birth." What we've been saying all along.
