Is it normal to regret having an abortion?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s normal to feel regret after an abortion, just as it’s normal to feel relief, sadness, or a mix of emotions. Your feelings don’t automatically mean you made the wrong decision.
People can have complicated feelings afterward, and they can change over time. You might regret the circumstances, feel grief about what could have been, or wish you’d had more support—even if ending the pregnancy still felt like the right choice for you then.
There’s no single “correct” reaction. If the regret is weighing heavily on you, talking with someone kind and nonjudgmental may help you sort through it without being pushed toward any particular conclusion.
