Abortion Restrictions in Ohio Hurt Women’s Health, Study Finds
Aug 31, 2016, 10:23 AM
Abortion restrictions implemented in Ohio in 2011 under the guise of protecting women's health led to more side-effects and follow-up visits for patients, according to a new study out of the University of California, San Francisco.
The 2011 Ohio law makes sense on paper: it requires abortion providers to prescribe the abortion medication mifepristone (also known as RU-486) in compliance with federally approved guidelines.
