I discovered that in the United States about 1.6 million pregnancies end in abortion, and it is one of the safest surgeries.

At least 30% of all pregnancies are now ended by abortions. 46% of American women over the age of 45 have had an abortion. 95% of abortions are done because of social reasons, which include rape, incest or health problems.
