ROE V. WADE OVERTURNED: SEPARATING FACT FROM FICTION

A lot has changed in the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade in our nation. Sometimes it’s difficult to separate fact from fiction. With all the noise of the media on each side, here is what you need to know about abortion access changes in your state. 

Is Abortion Completely Banned?

The simple answer is: no! The overturning of  Roe v. Wade did not make abortion illegal throughout the U.S., but it gave the power over to the states. Each state decides its regulations for elective abortion.

Treatment for Ectopic Pregnancy

As many women are asking, does this ban affect ectopic pregnancy treatment? No. All women still have access to receive the medical attention and treatment needed for an ectopic pregnancy, as well as miscarriage. 

Abortion Access in Alabama

If you live in the state of Alabama, you may wonder if it’s illegal to get an abortion. Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, abortion was officially banned, except in cases of life endangerment and the health of the woman.
