Some proposed negative psychological effects of abortion have been referred to by anti-abortion advocates as a separate condition called "post-abortion syndrome", but this is not recognized by medical or psychological professionals in the United States.
Niektoré navrhované psychologické následky potratov boli nazývané odporcami interrupcie ako samostatný stav volaný "syndróm post-interrupcie", ktorý však nie je uznaný žiadnou lekárskou alebo psychologickou organizáciou.
