Is abortion ever medically necessary? Experts say no!
Dublin – The International Symposium on Excellence in Maternal Healthcare has launched a new website publicizing their expert statement on abortion and maternal health care. Through this new resource, doctors and medical professionals can sign the Dublin Declaration, which affirms that abortion is never medically necessary.
In September, the symposium featured a panel of distinguished experts from around the world, known for their work in the fields of mental health, obstetrics and gynecology, and molecular epidemiology. More than 140 medical professionals gathered at the event to share cutting-edge research and data gathered over decades of clinical experience.
Their findings were released in the Dublin Declaration on Maternal Healthcare, which reads:
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
As experienced practitioners and researchers in obstetrics and gynaecology, we affirm that direct abortion – the purposeful destruction of the unborn child – is not medically necessary to save the life of a woman.
We uphold that there is a fundamental difference between abortion, and necessary medical treatments that are carried out to save the life of the mother, even if such treatment results in the loss of life of her unborn child.
We confirm that the prohibition of abortion does not affect, in any way, the availability of optimal care to pregnant women.
The symposium concentrated on issues of maternal mortality and morbidity, care for women with high-risk pregnancies, mental health, cancer in pregnancy, and fetal anomaly. Expert presentations addressed new therapies which involve the safe delivery of chemotherapy during pregnancy and the emerging field of in-utero fetal surgery. Many of these presentations can be viewed online.
Now medical professionals have the opportunity to sign the Dublin Declaration for themselves. If you are an OB/GYN or a pro-life doctor, please consider joining other distinguished signatories in affirming that health care should protect both mother and child.
