SC Senate subcomittee advances near-total abortion ban. Here’s what to know The proposed South Carolina law would ban abortions except to save the mother's life, criminalize medication abortion and penalize doctors and women.

“When you criminalize a mom, you’re not just punishing her, you’re punishing her children,” said Ashlyn Preaux of the Palmetto State Abortion Fund.

When we fight for reproductive rights, we shoot for the moon! 🩷🌙

Despite restrictions, North Carolina remains a critical access point for abortion care in the South.

Trump admin moves Title X family planning program away from contraception, toward conception New guidance, and the promise of a new rule, are expected to cut off funding to Planned Parenthood starting in 2027.

The overhaul of the Title X family planning program next year will make it harder for people to get the care they rely on every day and make informed decisions about their families and future.

Everyone deserves access to birth control, pap smears, and STI testing and treatment — without barriers.

Abortion will always be essential in the fight for reproductive freedom.

Restrictions on abortion access result in more high-risk pregnancies, less options for reproductive care, and higher maternal death rates.

It’s International Trans Day of Visibility! Visibility is an essential first step to supporting trans rights, but it can’t be the last step.

We also need to protect, listen to, and celebrate trans people. Today and every day. 🏳️‍⚧️

Your reason for getting an abortion is the right one.

Solving the Black Maternal Health Crisis Will Require Advancing Access to Community-Based Doula Care Recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that the U.S. maternal mortality rate has continued to worsen, with Black women

Doulas are especially important for Black women, who have higher maternal mortality rates due to racism in health care.

States that want to improve the Black maternal health crisis need to support and ensure access to doulas.

Reminder: A pronoun is simply a part of speech, like a verb or an adjective. And yes, using they/them for one person is grammatically correct — something English teachers have taught for generations.

Don't be transphobic.

A huge reason why conditions like endometriosis and PCOS go undiagnosed is the idea that painful periods are “nothing to worry about”.

Your pain is real. Your experience is real. Just because it’s normal and expected doesn’t mean you have to suffer.

Reproductive freedom is not just a women’s issue. It’s about whether the government has the right to make health care decisions for you.

Last time we checked, politicians don’t belong in your exam room.

👋I’m gonna need y’all 🫵 to start respecting ALL 🙌 gender identities or I’m gonna start identifying as a problem. 👊

Today we’re celebrating Abortion Provider Appreciation Day! 💕

Abortion providers deserve a spotlight for showing up every day to provide this essential care. These staff members ensure that our patients receive the care, support, and resources they need.

Today and every day, THANK YOU! 💖

Today is International Women’s Day and March is Women’s History Month! This is a time to recognize that womanhood holds so many different, beautiful experiences, and they’re all worthy of being celebrated. 🎨credit: ppnorthcentralstates and @courtneyahndesign.bsky.social

As a reminder, abortion is available in South Carolina up to about 6 weeks of pregnancy.

If you need help accessing an abortion, call 1-800-230-PLAN or head to ppsat.org.

There’s no one right way to be trans or non-binary. No one owes you androgyny or conformity. Every form of gender expression is valid and worth celebrating.

Reminder that dangerous politicians trying to ban abortion only care about eliminating our right to bodily autonomy.

If you support access to:

- erectile dysfunction medication
- hormone therapy for menopause
- laser hair removal
- breast augmentation
- hair transplants

Congrats! 🎉 You support gender-affirming care! 😍

State abortion bans linked to spike in maternal deaths, study finds - FemTech World Abortion restrictions in US states were linked to higher maternal deaths during pregnancy and within 42 days after birth, a new study suggests. The research examined links between different abortion restrictions introduced across US states between 2005 and 2023 and deaths during pregnancy or in the first 42 days after giving birth. Unlike much earlier work, it used a broad…

Abortion bans don’t save lives – they endanger them. They lead to forced pregnancies and high maternal mortality, and deepen existing inequities.
