An abortion is when a medical professional causes, through physical or chemical means, the termination of a pregnancy. Usually this will occur because a woman does not want to have a baby.
Sometimes a woman gets pregnant accidentally, or may be raped, and these are a couple of examples of reasons why she may wish to end the pregnancy.
Many people believe that abortion is murder, but many others believe that it is a woman's right to make her own choices regarding her body.
It is unfortunate that issues such as abortion are never really discussed rationally, because people are very emotional, understandably, about the topic.
I do not think it is fair for someone to abuse another on the basis of their decision to abort a pregnancy.
So the abortion is a simple medical procedure, but any procedure is a risk. Sometimes a woman may be unable to get pregnant again, although some chemical abortion options limit this risk.
The main complication with abortion is the moral and ethical one.
Overall, I believe it is unclear which side of the argument is right. Overall though, it seems reasonable to consider that a woman's right to do what she wants to her own body supersedes the beliefs of others about what they think should happen to her and her baby.
I said too much, but I just start typing and I cant stop. I hope that helps!!

An abortion is the removal or expulsion from the uterus of an embryo or fetus, resulting in or caused by its death. This can occur spontaneously as a miscarriage, or be artificially induced through chemical, surgical or other means. Commonly, "abortion" refers to an induced procedure at any point in the pregnancy; medically, it is defined as a miscarriage or induced termination before twenty weeks gestation, which is considered nonviable.
There have been various methods of inducing abortion throughout history. The moral and legal aspects of abortion are the subject of intense debate in many parts of the world.

Abortion is another name for a miscarriage. That is the loss of a pregnancy before 20wks gestation. After 20wks it is termed a Stillbirth. In some instances abortion is said to be a termination of the pregnancy as the others have rightly put it. This is usa. done with use of meds, or surgical procedures performed by Drs. Religiously though, churches belief it is TOTALLY immoral.

an abortion is what a Democrat/ Liberal does to end the life of a fetus, a fetus the Democrat has no intention of nurturing into a baby. Democrats are the leaders of having abortions

A SIN (murder) it's basically, killing an innocent child because you were very irresponsible.
Note: studies have shown that in cases of rape, the abortion was more traumatizing (I think that's how you spell it) than the actually rape.
Just be PRO-LIFE and not pro-choice.
