If you think about yourself and having to have an abortion without the choice you would feel your rights have been taken away. That is exactly what the Nazi’s did. The Nazi’s took away every joy that a mother should be able to have. At Ravensbruck, there had been a little bit of an overpopulation because the “SS could not control the childbirth because there were so many women coming into the camp from various parts of Europe.”(forced abortion and medical experiments) This had led to a big problem for them so they began “[allowing] mothers to actually breastfeed their babies, knowing [their] babies would die [because] the mothers had no milk in their breasts.” (forced abortion and medical experiments) This is one of the most cruel things you can witness; a child’s death. The Nazi’s didn’t care though, they just kept allowing it. The Nazi’s had created a place that “ women were tortured and exterminated.” Most women were “brutalized, experimented upon, forced into prostitution or compelled to undergo sterilization or abortion against their will.”(Groundbreaking study exhumes) People have reason to believe that the reason the Nazi’s did this was because there was no compulsory saying that they couldn’t. Many people vocalize that “the jewish experience was horrifically unspeakable.”( Groundbreaking study exhumes) It can be argued that the Nazi’s were forcing abortion because of overpopulation. The Nazi’s thought that it was still be right to force that on women and men. Pregnant jewish women would undergo “abortions no matter how advanced the pregnancy in dangerously unsanitary settings.” (Groundbreaking Study exhumes) Women were having abortions in random places making them more immune to sickness and diseases. Not only could they get sick but if they did end up having their baby “the mothers of [the] babies and young children were sent to gas

    During times of war prisoners were treated with torture and violence. The medical experiments performed on the imprisoned Jews by the Nazis during World War I affected them physically and psychologically.

There were also other torture methods of the war. Did we learn anything from these horrendous experiments or were they simply torturous without reason?…
