All the conversation in the last couple years about birth control being disruptive to the natural hormone cycles our bodies need as women, having detrimental effects -> makes me wonder about younger women getting hysterectomies. I fully support 18+ women having access to elective hysterectomies since that will prevent some abortions (a considerable number of women who abort are convinced they never want kids, are unwilling to choose abstinence, and are capable of taking extreme actions to end a pregnancy), but now I wonder about the effects it has on the long term health of the woman. Obviously it's still a much better road than abortion, for the woman's health too, and I definitely support adults making choices about their own bodies especially when those choices will prevent them hurting other people in the future.
