In the wake of Roe v. Wade's fall, the medical landscape for women in Texas has changed dramatically. Conditions surrounding miscarriages have led to delayed and inadequate care, as evident in Porsha Ngumezi's tragic case.
Doctors have expressed hesitation in performing common procedures like dilation and curettage (D&C) due to fears of violating abortion bans, thus complicating essential care for women experiencing miscarriages.
Misoprostol, while often used in miscarriages, can be dangerous for women who are heavily bleeding, indicating a pressing need for alternative treatment options in restrictive health environments.
Many healthcare providers report feeling pressured and fearful about the potential legal ramifications of the decisions they make regarding pregnancy-related treatments, affecting their ability to provide timely care.
