RESUMEN TítuloInfluencia de las creencias androcéntricas en la vivencia de la maternidad en mujeres de una comarca rural (España) IntroducciónLa maternidad esta impregnada de creencias androcéntricas que ponen en riesgo a las mujeres.

“…Women confront difficult decisions about the life of the fetus, their own life, and what it might mean for their families [45]. The diagnosis can cause severe emotional distress that can last for years, especially if, among other things, women are advised to have an abortion [46].…”

“…When 17 women in Australia were interviewed about their experiences of health care after being diagnosed with breast cancer during pregnancy, they reported particularly disliking the insistence by some clinicians that abortion is the only rational response to cancer [47]. Interviews with another 15 women in Australia revealed their priority as staying alive, especially for the sake of their existing children, but that they longed to bring their fetus to term [45]. This was echoed in women pregnant with their first child who yearned to have the baby but wanted to ensure they were alive to mother the child [45].…”

“…This was echoed in women pregnant with their first child who yearned to have the baby but wanted to ensure they were alive to mother the child [45]. Among the 15 women interviewed, only one had an abortion, for which she expressed regret even years later [45]. Because a diagnosis of breast cancer during pregnancy presents the clinician with an ethical dilemma in reconciling the health of the mother and of the fetus [48], women may be given equivocal advice, thus making their decision even more difficult [45].…”

Meanings of abortion in context: accounts of abortion in the lives of women diagnosed with breast cancer

et al. 2017

BackgroundA breast cancer diagnosis and an abortion can each be pivotal moments in a woman’s life. Research on abortion and breast cancer deals predominantly with women diagnosed during pregnancy who might be advised to have an abortion. The other—discredited but persistent—association is that abortions cause breast cancer. The aim here was to understand some of the ways in which women themselves might experience the convergence of abortion and breast cancer.MethodsAmong 50 women recruited from the Australian Breast Cancer Family Study and interviewed in depth about what it meant to have a breast cancer diagnosis before the age of 41, five spontaneously told of having or contemplating an abortion. The transcripts of these five women were analysed to identify what abortion meant in the context of breast cancer, studying each woman’s account as an individual “case” and interpreting it within narrative theory.ResultsIt was evident that each woman understood abortion as playing a different role in her life. One reported an abortion that she did not link to her cancer, the second was relieved not to have to abort a mid-treatment pregnancy, the third represented abortion as saving her life by making her cancer identifiable, the fourth grieved an abortion that had enabled her to begin chemotherapy, and the fifth believed that her cancer was caused by an earlier abortion.ConclusionsThe women’s accounts illustrate the different meanings of abortion in women’s lives, with concomitant need for diverse support, advice, and information.

Malignancy during pregnancy is a rare clinical entity, complicating approximately 1 in 1000 to 1 in 2000 pregnancies overall. [1][2][3] Previous studies related to pregnancy with malignancy primarily focused on optimizing anti-cancer treatment during pregnancy and examining the fetal effects of such therapy, 1,2,4 and limited data are available regarding the psychological effect of malignancy among pregnant women. For instance, a 2019 systematic review identified only a few studies that reported the psychological aspects of pregnant women with malignancy, 5-9 and these previous investigations have been limited by their small heterogeneous study size. [5][6][7][8][9] The risk of psychological comorbidities such as anxiety or depressive disorder is likely higher as pregnant women who have cancer face two major life events: a life-threatening cancer diagnosis and the pregnancy itself. [6][7][8][9] These two life events are conflicting for the patients, and a challenging and devastating event such as cancer during pregnancy can trigger fear, guilt, and anxiety in the patient. 4 Given the rarity of pregnancy with malignancy, a large-scale analysis of psychological comorbidities can provide valuable clinical
