Article Synopsis
- A study compared mental health outcomes between women who had induced abortions and those who experienced natural pregnancy losses, revealing differences in mental health service utilization.
- Results showed that women who had natural losses had higher mental health service usage before their pregnancy outcomes, but the abortion group saw significant increases in usage after the procedure.
- The findings suggest that the increased mental health services following an abortion are not just due to pre-existing mental health issues, as the natural loss group did not experience similar post-outcome increases.
