As an OB-GYN currently practicing in Texas, the quality medical care I provide did not change after Texas enacted its pro-life law. Nor has the law prevented me from caring for my patients in emergencies. Don't be fooled by misinformation.

As we predicted, pro-life laws aren't worsening maternal mortality. Abortion isn't the solution to this devastating problem. If we're serious about tackling this tragic situation, we must address the root issues, which include our chronic illness and mental health epidemics, and family breakdown leading to single mothers living in poverty.

Despite the abortion industry's fearmongering, there is no evidence that women are suffering from Iowa's pro-life law or that the law will lead to a shortage of OB-GYNs. Read my new analysis on Iowa’s pro-life law: lozierinstitute.org/are-pro-life-l…

.@SenBillCassidy has launched an investigation of U.S. abortion drug manufacturers and is urging the FDA to reinstate crucial safeguards. As an OB-GYN, I have seen firsthand the devastating effects of these drugs. Women and babies deserve better.

4 years ago, I examined photos of the DC 5. Though we may not know exactly how each baby died, given the DC medical examiner’s decision not to perform autopsies, we know these precious babies suffered excruciatingly painful deaths. It’s hard to look at their photos, but they represent a very real problem in the US. washingtontimes.com/news/2022/apr/…

A woman is at least three times as likely to die from any cause in the year following abortion than after childbirth. eviemagazine.com/post/the-mater…

"Abortion Provider Appreciation Day"? 30+ years as an #OBGYN, 5,000+ deliveries, 0 abortions—because unborn babies are my patients too. Real health care gives women life-affirming support, not abortion that ends their baby's life. Let's honor those who care for BOTH mom and baby.

Providing abortion care is an act of love and liberation. It is steady, determined work carried forward across generations. #CelebrateAbortionProviders

Abortion advocates who blame pro-life laws for maternal mortality rates are more interested in ideological fights than the evidence-based solutions women and their families deserve. We should be advancing quality obstetric care for mothers and improving women’s prenatal physical and mental health so that no family has to face the devastation of losing a mother during childbirth.

The reality is the U.S. has had the worst maternal mortality in the developed world for decades, even while abortion was readily available with almost no limits. usnews.com/news/best-coun…

There are many complex factors that may contribute to U.S. maternal mortality: access to health care, chronic illnesses, substance abuse disorder, etc. There isn’t a causal link between pro-life laws and increased maternal mortality. More⬇️

State abortion restrictions in place during the last two decades have resulted in more women dying during or after childbirth, new research shows. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
