In the wake of Louisiana’s abortion ban, pregnant women have been given risky, unnecessary surgeries, denied swift treatment for miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies, and forced to wait until their life is at risk before getting an abortion, according to a new report first made available to NPR.

It found doctors are using extreme caution to avoid even the appearance of providing an abortion procedure.

    But, I was told that if a woman doesn’t want a pregnancy that her body has “a way of shutting that whole thing down”.

    Conservatives sure are smart! Who needs doctors?! Doctors are for liberals!

    Seriously, conservatives. Just stop using doctors at all.

      I mean. They are not entirely wrong. Severe distress could result in a sponatous abortion.

        And that happens if a woman just ‘doesn’t want’ a pregnancy?

          If only! But sadly no.
