Abstract
The recent overturning of Roe v. Wade and the rise in restrictive abortion laws across the United States has caused a division across all communities, including citizens, politicians, and healthcare providers. The aim of this study was to learn the opinions and behavioral changes of birthing people since the overturning of Roe. This study utilized a cross-sectional online survey to explore the opinions and behavioral changes of birthing people after the overturning of Roe. The survey instrument covered the opinions and behavioral changes of Americans regarding abortion access, birth control access, willingness to share information with healthcare provider(s), and use of period tracking apps. The survey was distributed to three Facebook groups and to students and employees of a private university in the Midwest, yielding over 400 responses. The majority of respondents were from the state of Missouri.
