Female Permanent Contraception in the Military Health System After the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization Decision
Female permanent contraception encounter rates spiked in the Military Health System after <i>Dobbs</i>, with the greatest effect in those who were young, nonmarried, and on active duty and those in restrictive states. Differences in encounter rates by race in active duty may suggest inequities in care delivery. Abortion policies are affecting permanent contraception decision making in the Military Health System.
