flag States with TRAP abortion laws see higher maternal complications in fertility treatment patients, per 2026 JAMA study.

flag A 2026 study in JAMA Health Forum links states with TRAP abortion laws to higher maternal morbidity among women using fertility treatments, finding a 0.25% increase in complications like ICU admission and hysterectomies, though neonatal outcomes were unaffected. flag The research analyzed 2012–2021 data across 17 states with TRAP laws and 33 without, noting that affected patients were more likely to be White, Black, or have public insurance. flag Clinic closures and provider shortages may contribute to these disparities, prompting changes in clinical counseling, especially for marginalized groups.
