About The Study: Prior research finds abortion restrictions are associated with increased demand for telehealth medication abortion. However, whether this trend extended to adolescents was previously unknown, a population facing the unique legal burden of mandatory parental involvement, in addition to gestation bans. This study found that post-Dobbs increases in requests were highest among young adults, especially in states with restrictive abortion laws, and among adolescents, in states with gestational bans and parental consent and notification requirements.
