Abortion
Ever since the Supreme Court's ruling of Roe v. Wade in 1973, there has been an ongoing battle between the pro-life and pro-choice issue. This ruling declared that it is a woman's private act if she chooses to have an abortion or not, and that the government cannot have such control as to decide if an abortion should be preformed. This procedure is growing more and more popular everyday. If one types the word "abortion" into an Internet search engine, one may find over 337 sites on this case. One typical heading was "Roe v.

A vacuum (suction) machine is used to remove the tissues (fetus and placenta) from the uterus. Medicines such as oxytocin are sometimes given to cause the uterine muscles to contract and reduce the pain, most of the methods are related to the labor and birth process itself (Adam 2), but certainly the method of abortion that will be used is depending on the physician and his personal preference and skill and the policies of the hospital, but the most important factor is the length of the pregnancy and the size of the fetus (Horvitz 213). According to some mothers, the worst part of having an abortion is the emotional pain that it brings once it is done. Women end up with a feeling of regret for the rest of their lives.
