Post-abortive refers to the physical and emotional state of a woman after having an abortion, and in particular the additional trauma caused by the abortion. It can also be called "post-abortion syndrome" (PAS), "post-abortal", or "post-traumatic stress disorder" (PTSD). Liberal denial does not help, but Bible-consistent healing techniques can be very effective in overcoming both hidden and overt emotional, psychological, and/or intellectual harm that results from abortion.
Post-abortive distress affects many men, too, with common symptoms as listed below.
