Planned Parenthood Doctor Asserts That Abortion is Painful!
Planned Parenthood Doctor Asserts That Abortion is Painful!
Dr. Lynn Borgatta and David Nickinovich, Ph.D. published an article in The Journal of Reproductive Medicine (1997 volume 42, pp. 287-293). Dr. Lynn Borgatta is in the Medical Division of Planned Parenthood Federation of America (New York City). The article, entitled Pain During Early Abortion, is the result of a survey of 1,055 women to determine the level of pain experienced during an induced abortion. Of the women surveyed, 558 of them were nulliparous (had never borne a child).
The article states, "We were surprised to note that the majority of women reported moderate or more discomfort during the procedure; we had not expected as many women to report severe pain."
The women surveyed were asked to rate the amount of pain they experienced in their abortion on a scale from zero to five, with zero being "none" and five being "severe."
Survey Results (taken from Table II in the article):
Note that 58.2% of all women surveyed experienced "quite a bit" or "severe" pain during induced abortion! Among women who had never carried a child to term (i.e. nulliparous), this figure is even higher, at 61.4%.
Quite simply, anyone who claims that abortion is a "painless procedure" is lying.
