    Episode 2: Abortion Beyond Borders: Telehealth Medication Abortion in the U.S. with Dr. Ushma Upadhyay

    Welcome to Episode 2 of Repro Questions ANSIRH’ed, Abortion Beyond Borders: Telehealth Medication Abortion in the U.S. with Dr. Ushma Upadhyay. Dr. Upadhyay is a Public Health Scientist and Professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences here at the University of California, San Francisco. Her research examines abortion safety, access to reproductive health care, and how state and federal policies shape people’s ability to obtain timely abortion care in the United States. Dr. Upadhyay’s more recent studies have demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of telehealth and “no-test” medication abortion care, which includes sending the medications by mail, and how barriers such as travel distance, cost, and restrictive state policies influence abortion access and pregnancy outcomes.
