About The Study: This study found an increase in use of tubal sterilization in all included states after the Dobbs decision, followed by a further monthly increase in banned states and a similar but not significant tendency in limited states (but not in protected states). The study extends prior research by differentiating restrictiveness of state abortion laws.
