The rate of sterilizations among reproductive-age women that July 2022 spiked 19 percent in states that enacted total or near-total abortion bans following the US Supreme Court's Dobbs decision in June 2022 .
A similar initial spike was seen across the nation, with states that either limited or protected access to abortions seeing a 17 percent increase.
But, after that, states with bans saw a divergent trend, with sterilization procedures largely level off after July 2022 .
