New study published on abortion and mental health.

Dr Pravin Thevathasan, a psychiatrist with over twenty years' experience, has written a booklet on ‘Abortion and Mental Health’ in which he examines the psychological consequences of induced abortion. Dr Thevathasan has said that perhaps the most important statement in this study is that, while over ninety per cent of abortions are done on the ground that continuation of the pregnancy would lead to serious damage to the women's mental health, there is no evidence that abortion reduces the mental health risks of unwanted pregnancy.
