  • “It was so easy, it didn't feel real

    Open AccessCynthia Beavin, Hillary J Gyuras et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2026

    Research on abortion has disproportionately focused on legal restrictions, barriers, and stigma, contributing to a "joy deficit" in scholarship and creating epistemic foreclosures on how researchers, professionals, and abortion seekers may envision an abortion seeking experience. This study explores the positive emotions and experiences that abortion seekers had while navigating a restrictive post-Dobbs context. We conducted 81 in-depth interview…

    Compared with state data, KHJN supported a higher percentage of young people, people of color, and people at later gestations.

Using publicly available data, we created a timeline of abortion-related laws in Indiana, calculated abortion rates by geography, and described changes in abortion occurrence coincident with changes in abortion-related laws between 2010 and 2019. Results. Between 2010 and 2019, Indiana’s legislature passed 14 abortion-restricting laws, …

  • State of Confusion

    Open AccessDanielle Czarnecki, Danielle Bessett et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health and Social…2023Cited by: 3References: 57

    This study examines an underexplored source of medical uncertainty: the political context of care. Since 2011, Ohio has passed over 16 abortion-restrictive laws. We know little about how this legislation affects reproductive health care outside of abortion clinics. Drawing on focus groups and interviews with genetic counselors and obstetrician-gynecologists, we examine how abortion legislation impacts their work. We find that interpretation and i…

  • The double-edged sword of abortion regulations

    Open AccessHillary J Gyuras, Meredith P Field et al.ARTICLEMedical Education Online2022

    Prior to the reversal of federal protections for abortion in 2022, OB/GYNs in Ohio and other abortion-hostile states experienced barriers to training in abortion care. In returning abortion regulation to the states, access to training is likely to be increasingly restricted. This research demonstrates how abortion-restrictions hamper physicians' skills needed to care for patients, particularly in emergent situations. This puts patients at risk an…
