Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, many state legislatures have implemented new abortion restrictions and bans, while enforcing existing ones. These restrictions disproportionately affect marginalized groups. Many state laws include limited exceptions to total bans based on gestational duration. Globally, 662 million (34%) women of reproductive age live in countries that allow abortion on request, while 457 million (23%) live in countries allowing abortion on broad social or economic grounds. Conversely, 111 million (6%) women of reproductive age reside in countries where abortion is completely prohibited. In the US, post-Roe, each state now determines its own abortion policies. Various types of restrictions exist: * **Method bans:** Laws prohibiting specific abortion methods, like dilation and extraction (D&X) or dilation and evacuation (D&E). * **Telehealth Shield laws:** Protect abortion providers offering telemedicine abortion care to out-of-state residents unable to travel for the procedure.
