An Idaho woman who documented her 19-day miscarriage on social media said it was days before she could receive care due to the state's strict abortion laws.
Because a D &C can also be used when providing abortion care, she told ABC News she believes it's directly tied to Idaho's abortion ban.

Broesder said she wasn't seeking an abortion when she went to the hospital the first time.
ABC News reached out to the doctor's office for a comment on their care for Broesder but did not hear back.
Providers also may be worried about providing miscarriage care because it could be misconstrued as providing abortion care, and they could face legal repercussions.
She said the Idaho law worries her that if something similar happens, she could die due to fear from medical professionals about administering care. »
