Postpartum Contraceptive Use Among Medicaid Beneficiaries Following Idaho's Abortion Ban

Listen to this summary

This study investigates the impact of Idaho's abortion ban on postpartum contraceptive use among Medicaid beneficiaries. The authors found that the ban was associated with significant decreases in the use of the most effective contraception within 90 days postpartum and lower attendance at postpartum visits, highlighting potential unintended consequences of abortion restrictions on reproductive health care access.
