We love our bodies. We support causes that rally behind women’s health and our passion to live a happy physical life. But could two of those causes be in direct opposition with each other?

In addition, “breastfeeding for an extended period (at least a year) is associated with a decreased risk of both hormone receptor-positive and hormone receptor-negative breast cancer2."
So does the "right" to abortion actually cost us peace of mind due to increased cancer risk?
