Science (again) confirms common sense

Simon Caldwell, "Abortion 'triples breast cancer risk': Fourth study finds terminations linked to disease" (Mail Online, June 24, 2010):
An abortion can triple a woman’s risk of developing breast cancer in later life, researchers say.

A team of scientists made the claim while carrying out research into how breastfeeding can protect women from developing the killer disease.

While concluding that breastfeeding offered significant protection from cancer, they also noted that the highest reported risk factor in developing the disease was abortion.
