Abortion restrictions may have increased suicide risk among women ages 20 to 34, new research suggests
"Restricted access to abortions may have increased the risk of suicide among women of reproductive age for more than four decades, new research from the University of Pennsylvania suggests.
Though suicide deaths are rare, they are the second leading cause of death among women ages 20-24 in the U.S. and the third leading cause among women ages 25-34.
A study published Wednesday in JAMA Psychiatry found that abortion restrictions may have played a role in some suicide deaths among younger women from 1974 to 2016.
During that period, 21 states enforced at least one Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers (TRAP) law, which impose mandates on abortion providers or facilities, such as requiring facilities to be located near a hospital or requiring providers to be affiliated with a local hospital. From 1974 to 2016, the average annual suicide rate among women of reproductive age in those states was nearly 6% higher than in prior years when the laws weren't enforced.
