Or in some cases, miscarriage. My mother used to mention that she would have her miscarriages occasionally misclassified as abortions back then. And they're happening now in some cases, leading to women facing severe penalties
They were not misclassified. Abortion means the termination of a pregnancy before viability. It can be induced or spontaneous (miscarriage) but both are medically abortions. It's why idiots in politics who don't understand medical science shouldn't be making laws defining terms that they don't understand or mean different things to lay people
By misclassified I refer more to the strict terminology that would be utilised for legislation. Nowadays, that line is obscenely thin and that is incredibly dangerous. All in all it's not supposed to be this way and women in general should have bodily autonomy plus better access to healthcare
