Share Facts on Induced Abortion in the United States
May 2011
INCIDENCE OF ABORTION
• Nearly half of pregnancies among American women are unintended, and four in 10 of these are terminated by abortion.[1] Twenty-two percent of all pregnancies (excluding miscarriages) end in abortion.[2]

• Forty percent of pregnancies among white women, 69% among blacks and 54% among Hispanics are unintended.[1] In 2008, 1.21 million abortions were performed, down from 1.31 million in 2000. However, between 2005 and 2008, the long-term decline in abortions stalled. From 1973 through 2008, nearly 50 million legal abortions occurred.[2]

• Each year, two percent of women aged 15-44 have an abortion;[2] half have had at least one previous abortion.[6]

At least half of American women will experience an unintended pregnancy by age 45[4], and, at current rates, nearly one-third will have had an abortion.[5]


it goes on from there...

that is a shitload of irresponsible women. its shameful.

I cannot possibly understand how so many people have an unwanted pregnancy. there are tons of ways to prevent it.

get on the pill, take it at the same time every day, and use a condom... and in only the rarest of rare circumstances will someone become pregnant. certainly not half of all cases. maybe less than 1% of all cases.

if you cant do the above and dont want to get pregnant than dont have sex. or live up to your responsibility.

abortion is plain disgusting (obviously cases that occur from a crime or when its a health risk are different). but unfortunatly it is neccesary because we are filled with a population who are irresponsible. men and women. all they think about is now now now.
