Background: The psychological long-term effects of an induced abortion are the subject of constant debate, but the scientific basis of experience is limited and by no means unambiguous. We wanted to study how a random selection of women felt about pre-agreed follow-up studies after an induced abortion.
Material And Method: All abortion patients who attended the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Haukeland University Hospital during a three-month period received a questionnaire.
