Reporting requirement type matters
BACKGROUND: In the context of the maternal overdose crisis and concerns that child welfare reporting is a barrier to care and treatment, current policy discussions in the U.S. focus on alternatives to child welfare reporting requirements. Thus, we examine associations between different state-level reporting requirements and birth outcomes and prenatal care utilization. METHODS: We use U.S. state-level policy data from the Alcohol Policy Informati…

Brief of over 300 reproductive health researchers as Amici Curiae in FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine
On January 30, 2024, over 300 researchers filed an amicus brief in FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, a United States (US) Supreme Court case that could have severely impacted access to mifepristone, one of the two drugs commonly used in medication abortion. The researchers summarize the legal challenges to the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA's) original approval of mifepristone in 2000 and its 2016 and 2021 decisions modifying mife…
Support for criminalization of self-managed abortion (SMA)
Perspectives on Alternative Models of Medication Abortion Provision Among Abortion Patients in the United States
People who have previously had a medication abortion are interested in alternative methods of provision for reasons concerning convenience, privacy, and avoiding burdens related to hostile policy environments, such as long travel distances to clinics and multiple appointments. Concerns around these models were primarily safety concerns for young people. Further research is needed to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, acceptability, and feasibili…
Evaluating the Effect of San Francisco’s Paid Parental Leave Ordinance on Birth Outcomes
Since 2017, San Francisco's Paid Parental Leave Ordinance (PPLO) has allowed parents who work for private-sector employers to take 6 weeks of fully paid postnatal parental leave. Previous studies have linked paid parental leave with health improvements for birthing people and babies, although evidence for birth outcomes is limited. We hypothesized that the PPLO may have improved birth outcomes via reduced stress during pregnancy due to anticipati…
Pre-Abortion Informed Consent Through Telemedicine vs. in Person
Exploring Attitudes About the Legality of Self-Managed Abortion in the US
Introduction Twenty-four states have at least one law in place that could be used to prosecute people for self-managed abortion (SMA), or the termination of a pregnancy outside of the formal healthcare system. We investigated factors associated with public attitudes about SMA legality and legal access to abortion more generally. Methods In August 2017, we surveyed a nationally representative sample of English- and Spanish-speaking women ages 18–4…

Dualities between Tunisian provider beliefs and actions in abortion care
Despite Tunisia's historically progressive reproductive health policies, Tunisian women now face significant challenges accessing legal abortion. Through in-depth interviews with providers at six facilities, we explored factors influencing provider attitudes about abortion and provider perspectives about abortion morality, safety, and legality. We found that gatekeepers (counsellors and front office staff) generally believed abortion was immoral,…
