Therapeutic abortion does not lead to lasting psychological harm. Among 32 women who had a therapeutic abortion for psychiatric reasons and were followed for an average of 2.5 years, most showed improved mental health. Only one woman experienced a transient psychotic episode shortly after the procedure. The authors conclude that therapeutic abortion can be a beneficial psychiatric measure when indicated.
