I won't be able to get pregnant after having an abortion.

An abortion preformed by an experienced physician under sterile conditions does not hamper a woman's future fertility. In fact, many people become pregnant shortly after an abortion, even before their next period.

An abortion will cause me to have breast cancer.

There is no link between having an abortion and sub-sequentially developing breast cancer. This argument is a scare tactic promoted by anti-choice groups.

The doctor is not a real doctor.

Bloor West Village Women's Clinic is staffed by a small group of dedicated female physicians, fully qualified by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario. They have specialized training and many years of experience in the provision of abortion services. In addition to their skill and experience, they, along with the rest of the clinic staff are individually chosen for their caring and compassion.

Abortion is illegal.

Abortion is fully legal in all parts of Canada. There are no laws restricting access to abortion in this country.

The instruments used are not sterile.

We only use sterile surgical equipment for each procedure, a large portion of which is disposable.
