Less than a year later, on May 17, 2001 Stuttaford authored another
article for The Times in which he revealed that he had reversed his
position on the abortion-breast cancer research. In an article
entitled "Fresh Line of Attack," he wrote: "Breast cancer is diagnosed
in 33,000 women in the U.K. each year; of these, an unusually high
proportion had an abortion before eventually starting a family. Such
women are up to four times more likely to develop breast cancer.
"A report by the Royal Statistical Society shows that a termination of
pregnancy interrupts the cellular changes that occur in the breast
during pregnancy. Once the woman has had children, the effect is less
because the cellular changes have been completed...."
Karen Malec, president of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, an
international women's organization, offered her comments on this turn
of events by saying that "The British scientific community has
consistently demonstrated far less bias against the abortion-breast
cancer research than has the American scientific community. The
British have been far more willing to publish solid research showing a
positive association between abortion and breast cancer. We invite the
American scientific community to set aside its political ideology in
favor of women's health by objectively evaluating and publishing the
scientific research."
The Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer is an international women's
organization founded to protect the health and save the lives of women
by educating and providing information on abortion as a risk factor
for breast cancer.
