Seven months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, some abortion clinics say new state bans on the procedure are pushing abortions later into pregnancy

Some providers in areas where abortion is legal say new state bans are pushing the procedures later into pregnancy.Since the Supreme Court’s decision to remove constitutional protections for abortion, the procedure has become largely inaccessible in nearly one-third of the states, either because a ban is in place or because clinics have shut down owing to legal uncertainty.

North Carolina has seen a surge in out-of-state patients because it is one of the few states in the Southeast where abortion is still legal past the very early weeks of pregnancy. As a pregnancy progresses and the fetus develops, abortions are more complicated—and expensive. Patients can only be prescribed the abortion pill up to about 10 weeks of pregnancy.Any time later than that typically involves a surgical procedure, which has longer wait times at some clinics and usually requires that patients have someone to accompany them home because of sedation.

Ms. Sykes, a 36-year-old mother of two young boys, lives in Alabama, where abortion is now banned throughout pregnancy.

Is there a reason why these woman are incapable of getting on birth control?

They didn't not over turn woe . That's lie. They gave it back to the states. Where it was in the 70's
