New research shows a connection between restrictive U.S. state abortion laws and higher suicide rates in young women.
Since that June 24 ruling, "trigger" bans have taken effect and anti-choice state legislators have escalated efforts to restrict abortion, blocking millions of people capable of becoming pregnant from seeking care close to home.
After examining suicide rates before and after the laws took effect, and comparing them to rates elsewhere and broad trends, the researchers found that "comparatively, women who experienced the shock of this type of restrictive legislation had a significant increase in suicide rate," Zandberg said. A statement from the university points out that the researchers "examined another common cause of death, motor vehicle death rates, and saw no effect. Controlling for potential confounders like the economy and political climate did not change the results."
Co-author Rebecca Waller of Penn's Department of Psychology stressed that "we're looking at the connection between summary data about causes of death at the state level and policy and politics over many decades." The new findings illustrate just one way abortion restrictions endanger the lives of people capable of pregnancy.

The women’s health nurse practitioner from Indianapolis was struck by just how frequently faith was cited in the arguments as reason to ban the medical practice. “That is a religious and values-based comment,' said Berg Raunick.
