The measure would prevent administration of the abortion drugs vaginally and reduce the amount of time the drugs could be administered from 8.4 weeks to seven weeks, requiring more medication, said Kate Neary-Pounds, director of Tulsa Reproductive Services.
“Barring women from having a medical abortion after seven weeks’ gestation forces women to undergo a surgery procedure when they otherwise would have the option of a safe procedure using the medications alone,” said Neary-Pounds.
“Our experience shows that making the process more difficult doesn’t change a woman’s mind, it just creates more of a burden on the patient and the provider. This is obviously the intent of the legislation.”
