Honestly terrifying stories and this is only the beginning

A lupus patient must stop taking medication that controls her illness because it can also cause miscarriages.

In a study published this month in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, doctors at two Texas hospitals cited the cases of 28 women less than 23 weeks pregnant who were treated for dangerous pregnancies. The doctors noted that all of the women had recommended abortions delayed by nine days because fetal heart activity was detected. Of those, nearly 60% developed severe complications — nearly double the number of complications experienced by patients in other states who had immediate therapeutic abortions. Of eight live births among the Texas cases, seven died within hours. The eighth, born at 24 weeks, had severe complications including brain bleeding, a heart defect, lung disease and intestinal and liver problems.

Before it overturned Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court never allowed states to ban abortion before the point when a fetus can survive outside the womb — roughly 24 weeks.

Abortion laws spark profound changes in other medical care

The Supreme Court's decision to let states outlaw most abortions is having profound repercussions in reproductive medicine as well as in other areas of medical care.

so basically we can rightfully conclude any medication that has a miscarriage side effect warning won't be issued to pregnant women or women at all in these anti-abortion states.

so more women have to seek medical care outside their state for care other than abortion.

so basically we can rightfully conclude any medication that has a miscarriage side effect warning won't be issued to pregnant women or women at all in these anti-abortion states.

In this case it was just about being a young woman, from the link:

Becky Schwarz, of Tysons Corner, Virginia, found herself unexpectedly thrust into the abortion controversy even though she has no plans to become pregnant.

The 27-year-old has lupus, an autoimmune disease that can cause the body to attack tissue surrounding joints and organs, leading to inflammation and often debilitating symptoms. For Schwarz, these include bone and joint pain, and difficulty standing for long periods of time.

She recently received a notice from her doctor saying she’d have to stop taking a medication that relieves her symptoms — at least while the office reviewed its policies for methotrexate in light of the Supreme Court ruling. That’s because the drug can cause miscarriages and theoretically could be used in an attempt to induce an abortion.

She even had no plans to become pregnant.



Also in case politicians start making condoms less accessible in some states:

The United States has some of the highest STD rates in the developed world. The United States had a gonorrhea rate of 123 per 100,000 people in 2015—the highest in the developed world at the time—which increased to 188.4 cases per 100,000 people in 2019. The U.S. also posted the third-highest rate for chlamydia in the developed world with 475 per 100,000 people in 2015, which increased to 552.8 per 100,000 in 2019.

STD rates increase in the United States for many reasons, including decreased condom use amongst vulnerable groups such as young people and men who partner sexually with other men. Additionally, state and local programs have experienced budget cuts, resulting in clinic closures, decreased screenings and care, and reduced patient follow-up.

STD rates in the U.S. vary widely from state to state. In 2019, the states with the highest STD rates were Mississippi, Alaska, and Alabama for gonorrhea, Alaska, Mississippi, and Louisiana for Chlamydia, and Nevada, New Mexico, and Mississippi for primary and secondary syphilis.

Abortion in Afghanistan - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

In order to legally abort a child due to a health risk the mother must meet with a gynecologist and three general practitioners, and have a counselling session. Not only this but the mother also needs permission from a doctor and so does the council of religious scholars. Abortion is only accepted in Afghanistan for extreme cases.

Religious council is still better than outright ban in case of a heartbeat.


Taliban law still allows for abortion if the religious council approves.

They Had Miscarriages, and New Abortion Laws Obstructed Treatment

Surgical procedures and medication for miscarriages are identical to those for abortion, and some patients report delayed or denied miscarriage care because doctors and pharmacists fear running afoul of abortion bans.

They're serious. Because to them "it just happened" (even if it was more than once), but these other women are "dirty sluts" or whatever.
Strange.

Even the Taliban is more liberal that the conservative crazies we have in this country..at least on this issue.

yup. it's presented to the voters to decide. it isn't a confusing question where voting no actually means the opposite. straight-forward and to the point.
