Reproductive healthcare utilization in patients with bleeding disorders

Abstract

The United States Supreme Court's ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade has potential grave implications, impacting access to reproductive healthcare for women across the country. Similarly, women and adolescent girls with bleeding disorders need access to high-quality reproductive health care because there is a significant risk of bleeding complications in these patients. Treatment decisions need to be made by patients and treating physicians and not as a consequence of political ideology. Women including those with bleeding disorders should be given the autonomy to make their own reproductive health decisions.
