Dobbs decision leaving broad imprint on reproductive medicine
Data presented at a meeting of reproductive medicine specialists underscored how broadly and deeply the Dobbs decision is impacting the field.
NEW ORLEANS — The annual meeting of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine is usually a buoyant, shiny parade of new science, fresh technology products, and promises that together they will provide more people with more options than ever before for taking control of how and when, and if, they have children.
This year’s event still bore the familiar trappings of hope — 8-foot-high photos of parents holding newborns bathed in rays of sunshine, a verdant “wishing wall” bedecked with crepe-paper flowers crumpled around wishes made on behalf of patients experiencing infertility. But as thousands of leading reproductive health researchers and clinicians from around the world descended on The Big Easy, they couldn’t escape the big, dark, Dobbs-decision-shaped cloud hanging over it.
