It’s been several months since Roe v. Wade was overturned, setting off a cascade of abortion restrictions across conservative states. With so many states’ abortion laws in legal limbo, the abortion landscape changes day to day, causing confusion for providers and patients while demand for services remains high.

Not surprisingly, this includes Kentucky and Tennessee, where abortion is almost entirely banned. “We expect to see thousands upon thousands more patients as more neighboring states and states who relied on those neighboring states go dark,” Whitaker said.
