Abtreibungsverbote auf Bundesstaatsebene in den USA gehen mit einer Einschränkung der evidenzbasierten medizinischen Versorgung bei der Behandlung von Fehlgeburten einher. Dies bedeutet, dass mehr Frauen gezwungen waren, Schwangerschaften auszutragen, die nicht lebensfähig waren, was möglicherweise ihre Gesundheit und Fruchtbarkeit gefährdete und die Trauer über eine verlorene Schwangerschaft verlängerte.

Research from Oregon Health & Science University sheds new light on the unintended consequences of the overturn of *Roe v. Wade*: worse medical care for miscarriages.
Miscarriage — or the spontaneous, unexpected loss of a pregnancy before 20 weeks — is the most common complication in early pregnancy. The study, [published today](https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2849131?resultClick=1) in *JAMA*, found that state-level abortion bans were associated with a reduction in evidence-based medical care for miscarriage management.
**Clinical impacts**
Management of miscarriage requires the same medications and procedures used for abortion, including mifepristone and misoprostol, which in combination is proven to be safer and more effective than misoprostol alone.
In the retrospective cohort study, researchers used a national commercial insurance database to evaluate medical data from 123,598 individuals who experienced miscarriage prior to 10 weeks of pregnancy, between the years of 2018 and 2024.
Analysis showed that abortion bans were associated with a 2.8% increase in expectant management and a 2.2% decrease in medication management. Further, among those individuals who did receive medication, abortion ban states had a 13.8% increase in misoprostol-only regimens relative to the evidence-based mifepristone-plus-misoprostol combination.
This means more women were forced to carry pregnancies that weren’t viable, potentially putting their health and fertility at risk and prolonging the grief of a lost pregnancy.

As someone who endured a non viable pregnancy that was extended pointlessly by medical professionals I want to assure people that it is far, far worse than you might imagine.
Since this always boils down to religion, I can confidently say as someone who met God that they would be appalled if we could help someone who is suffering…but chose not to in their name. You don’t have to believe me or NDE, but if they get to bring their faiths and beliefs to the argument then I should be allowed to bring my personal experience as well.
Happened to my cousin. Catholic hospital is the single option where she lives. The baby died in her womb and she sought healthcare to remove it, thinking it was obviously past the point where no reasonable person would consider it “an abortion” in the colloquial sense.
NOPE. She was turned away. And then her body wouldn’t miscarry on its on for *days* so she walked around with a dead baby until she started getting sick. She went back to the hospital and they said she was showing signs of sepsis but they *still wouldn’t remove the dead fetus until she was full blown septic and her organs were starting to shut down.*
Because of religion. Their religion almost murdered my cousin.
Drug companies want to drug you with as many drugs as possible.
People who voted for this, apparently wanted this to happen or thought it wouldn’t affect them. I hope this gets some, if not all, to wake up and realize that it is important to support policies that will not interfere with proper scientifically proven medical care.
Exactly like Doctors, scientists, women’s advocates, historians and Liberals warned would happen
Unfortunately, that’s the point.
Because, somehow, someway, that ensures more babies are born.
Who cares if some plebeian lowlifes die in the process?
Gods that made me wanna puke typing that out…
Won’t change any minds, unfortunately.
If you argue with an anti-choicer long enough, eventually they stop with their ’sanctity of life‘ mask and start talking about pregnancy as „consequences“.
This is a positive to people who view pregnancy as punishment for women who have sex.
This is how you know that America, a developed nation, is not a developed nation.
This is why I don’t believe it’s practical to legislate my morality around abortion even if enough people did agree with me.
Trying to control it causes far more suffering than it could prevent. If that’s not a solid litmus test for whether or not we’re doing the right thing, what are we even doing?
If only there were throngs of medical experts who could have used their years of expertise and warned us against voting for policies that enable this!
Yeah the grief is the point.
This is so disheartening. I hope we can fix this soon, and I hope those outside of the US understand we don’t want this
In the first two years after the Supreme Court overturned *Roe v. Wade*, prosecutors have charged at least 412 people with pregnancy-related crimes, according to new data released today (September 30, 2025) by Pregnancy Justice.

The point is to punish people for their sins since god isn’t real and won’t actually do it. They hate seeing sinners prosper, it flies in the face of their ancient beliefs so they take matters into their own hands.
This was always the goal. The Right exists to maximize human suffering.
Yet i was assured this would never happen by people who can’t even carry a fetus and know nothing about anatomy
And they don’t care. Forced birthers see it as a feature or a necessary casualty.
Party of pro-*birth*, not pro-*life*.
Cruelty is the point of fascism, even whith „christo-“ in the name.
Gee, how shocking, who could have predicted this?
Sadly, the people who most need this information are those least likely to be convinced by peer reviewed medical science publications. The decision making that led to the bans is not rooted in modern medicine, but in theology and ideology.
Pro-life was always a scam.
Could be why Maternal Mortality is up 60% in Texas. If you want to get rid of your pregnant wife then Texas is the place to go! If you get past the Pray or Pay Healthcare then it’s back to Victorian level maternal care by a MD that’s doesn’t believe these laws conflict with their Oath.
It’s part of the plan. They think women deserve punishment. Abortion bans are about control, not saving children.
