a good start

'''Infertility''' is associated with [[abortion]], for several reasons:

*retention of fetal tissue, whereby the abortion is incomplete and tissue is left in the uterus. The tissue can then cause infections that damage reproductive ability, resulting in future infertility.

*the scarring of inside the uterus or the top of the cervix. Abortions that dilate the cervix can damage it, and interfere with its ability to have a successful future pregnancy. Premature birth in future-born children, which can result in increased child mortality, is correlated with abortion.

*the spread of a sexually transmitted disease through the instruments used in the abortion. One study concluded that abortion decreased fertility in women who had an existing or prior Pelvic Inflammatory Disease.<ref>Acta/Obstetrics and Gyn. Scandinavia 1979; 58:539-42 4.</ref>

*delaying childbirth due to abortion results in a natural increase in infertility
