There's a mounting body of evidence on how having or being denied an abortion affects pregnant people, including impacts on their mental health and the finances of them and their children. The effects on their male partners have received less attention.
In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, experts say that no longer should be the case.
"It's really naïve to think that the repeal of Roe is only going to impact women and pregnant people," said Dr. Bethany Everett, a professor of sociology at the University of Utah.
While the issue disproportionately impacts people who can get pregnant, Dr. Everett says it's important to look at abortion access from all sides, as limits on abortion access likely will have broader implications for society as a whole. One in five men have been involved in an abortion, one study finds
Research on the impact of abortions on male partners has been limited, but that doesn't mean the issue isn't relevant to men.
Using existing data from the National Survey of Family Growth, a recent study estimates that one in five men have impregnated someone who's had an abortion. That's likely an undercount, according to Dr. Brian Nguyen, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Southern California, who helped oversee the project.
"Not all men are aware of the pregnancies they cause and those that end in abortion," said Dr. Nguyen. "For some men who may see abortion as a failure on their part to be a better partner or potential father, or for those whose social and cultural backgrounds have made them feel as if abortion is wrong, disclosing an abortion can be challenging or uncomfortable."

Not too many at all.
Most guys are not having sex. Only the top 20% of men are really doing well in the sex department.
Men can now get pregnant so I guess they have to be more inclusive.
The Commie scum never quit.
It's a minefield out there.
The Lefties have done their jobs well.
The jabs are supposed to mess with semen production so we even see a return of the eunuchs!
We're back to the jungle. Survival of the fittest. Women are only attracted to Alpha Males. Society is already suffering due to extreme feminism. Civilization kept those traits in women under control. But we are not really that civilized anymore.

I didn’t know it would impact both women AND pregnant people. How can that be?
Well, my point was is that this isn’t going to affect most men at all in the way they think it will. Because the 80% of guys not having sex with Roe, are still not going to be having sex after its gone. So 80% of guys will pretty much experience life as usual.
Hardly a big deal for almost all guys, in fact. Very contrary to what the gynocentric hit piece wants you to be scared into thinking.
No kidding. We have a supreme justice that did not know what a woman was just a few minutes ago. Now this affects men.
This is the kind of buffoon running universities today.
It's hard to predict what will happen in the future but it's not looking good. Young men with all that testosterone in a society that no longer benefits them?
“Pregnant people”? Oh brother. Just make it stop.
And you have that right. With female hypergamy now out of control, this will only affect the Chads and Tyrones in that 20 percent.
Yea, the statistics on sex for millineals and younger are amazing. 20% of men and 80+% of women are having frequent sex. 80% of the men are completely celibate.
Truth, sanity and wisdom from NPR? HAHAHAHAHA...What an evil joke on us all.
Well now that men can get pregnant too /sarc
“women and pregnant people”
I’m going to throw up!
This propaganda is so insidious.
Yup
