Restricting access to and prohibiting abortion in the U.S. will only increase maternal mortality in the nation that already ranks shockingly low in maternal health

In my medical practice, where I treat people with high-risk pregnancies, I recently treated a young woman with pulmonary hypertension. Unfortunately, this diagnosis was made late into her second trimester, well after most states allow pregnancy termination. We had to have the difficult conversation that, despite all modern medical advances, as many as one in three women with this condition will die during pregnancy.

Forcing people to undertake these risks against their will is a fundamental violation of bodily autonomy and human rights, Yet multiple states stand poised to ban almost all abortions as soon as the court revokes this right to terminate a pregancy. As noted in a recent editorial in the Lancet, a leading medical journal, the Supreme Court justices and their supporters who seek to abolish abortion will have “blood on their hands.

And maternal mortality is inextricably bound with race, class and age. Women 45 years or older experienced nearly 10 times the odds of dying from pregnancy as compared to those younger than 35. Black women are three times more likely to die of pregnancy-related causes than white women. As illustrated by my patient with pulmonary hypertension, underlying medical conditions also play a role in pregnancy-related risk—and their prevalence is positively associated with lower socioeconomic status.

The controversy surrounding pregnancy termination is exceptional in its treatment of abortion as anything but a medical procedure. By juxtaposing the risks of pregnancy against the safety of abortion, the scientific backwardness of limiting access to abortion care is exposed.

Global average is 211 per 100k. US is currently at 19 per 100k. Your assistance is needed elsewhere.

You guys virtue signaling again? Oooh, that topic generates clicks and arguments. You hacks used to be reliable, but preachy? Get over yourself and stay out of picking sides.

She's a cleaning slave !

One study reports that 30,000 women across the globe die in DIY abortions per year. That’s on them. In the U.S alone in 2019 (according to the CDC) 639,898 pre-born (50% of whom are girls) not only died but were intentionally killed in “health care facilities”.

What a backward nation?

Kindly stop scare mongering. This sort of political -beause that is what it is- post simply lower the oppositions trust in the scientific method. You are activly hurting your own prospects with this, like it or not. Using your own data, risk of death: 850/3605201 = 2.4e-4 %

Lol, 'shockingly low in maternal health.'

Still pushing abortion, the Godless scientists who think they now everything. But what is science? The study of creation,know noting about the creator the supreme engineer. Abortion is murder ,there is no other variable.

Scientists that do not have God as their priority encourage people to do what is wrong instead of what is just an right in our Gods eyes So all of your scientific experiments caused the meltdown of society that we have endured Now godly scientists will take your place Ulife
