Let's all stay quiet about the link to 1st trimester abortions/miscarriages and breast cancer.

just kidding... ACOG has a policy paper out saying there is no link.

So that's it... abortions aren't bad for you (for the baby, that's another question) and will not affect breast cancer rates.

whew! I'm glad that it's settled, huh?

NY State didn't stay quiet, even if they don't shout it from the rooftops.

BREAST CANCER RISK FACTORS with references starts on page 25. “The importance of reproductive factors in affecting breast cancer risk has been known for a long time. Women who have never given birth (or had a full-term pregnancy) are at a higher risk for breast cancer compared to women who have carried a pregnancy to term.”(Page 26)

Although that hypothesis is supported by the estrogen receptor positive cancers, not the estrogen receptor negative cancers, IMHO. However, I believe progesterone receptors could also be involved, but I'm not an oncologist.
