Pregnancy is inherently a life threatening condition. That is not an exaggeration. Many women - myself included - would choose suicide over pregnancy. I’m fortunate enough to have gotten approved for sterilization, but many women’t don’t have insurance or won’t get approved. Treating birth control and abortion access like healthcare is the way forward

States with the most extreme abortion restrictions have terrible mortality rates for childbirth of the child and mother especially. Look to Texas for birth mortality rate higher than most countries as the huge discrepancy between white and black mothers for this as well. So it's not just anti-woman but it ends up being racist as well.
