I've actually argued with a woman who is pro life, meaning anti-abortion (and a lawyer) and apparently the hope is banning abortion will finally advance reproductive health treatment options because doctors (especially gyncologists) are lazy and automatically refer women to an abortion clinic or IVF if they want a kid but can't have. Apparently, if abortion is banned, maternal health will greatly improve because researchers have no choice but to fix the issue because lives are at stake. Pro life people also want to get IVF banned, abortion is just the easier one to win apparently from the legal setting, the irony being IVF affects people desperate for kids but seemingly can't have any.
