Practically speaking, a state can 'regulate' abortion as much as they like, up to the point where they violate individual rights.

Obviously, for instance, they couldn't confine a pregnant woman to prevent her going to another state, or country, for an abortion.

I see what you're saying. You just mean that a state can regulate abortion within the limits set by Roe. For some reason, I thought that you were suggesting that there might be some way for a state to avoid compliance with Roe.
