how avoiding your experience can defer acceptance, which in turn leads to denial and guilt
how pregnancy, abortion, and subsequent bleeding can affect your perception of your body
the struggle to enjoy sex after your abortion
your heightened awareness of gender after an abortion
how your intimate relationships may change after an abortion
the psychological reasons you may sometimes forgo birth control
accepting yourself after a second abortionExperiencing Abortion will help women who have had an abortion understand that it is a complex physical and emotional experience that doesn’t necessarily end after a week or a month or a year. It will also help professionals in abortion facilities and therapists who offer pre- and post-abortion counseling understand how abortion affects each individual differently and how they might help women work through their feelings both before and after abortion. Partners, friends, and families will find this book helpful and informative as they try to help their loved one get through this sometimes difficult, even traumatic, experience.
