A breast cancer study done in 1994 by Dr. Janet Daling (an abortion supporter), with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, found an overall 50% increase among young women who had an abortion. This study further divided the risk by age, showing 2 1/2 times the risk in women who had an abortion before age 18, and twice the risk in women who had their abortion after age 30. “I have three sisters with breast cancer and I resent people messing with scientific data to further their own agenda, be they pro-choice or pro-life. I would have loved to have found no association between breast cancer and abortion, but our research is rock solid and our data is accurate. It’s not a matter of believing, it’s a matter of what is.”” (Dr. Janet Daling, a leading cancer epidemiologist and pro-choice advocate who is the lead author of the only published study to be commissioned by the National Cancer Institute to investigate the link between abortion and breast cancer.

Thirteen out of fifteen studies conducted on American women report increased risk. The first study was published in an English publication in 1957 and focused on Japanese women. It showed a 2.6 relative risk or 160% increased risk of breast cancer among women who'd had an induced abortion.
