Greg Abbott in May, abortions once medical professionals can detect cardiac activity are prohibited. This happens as early as around six weeks and many women don\u2019t even know they\u2019re pregnant at that point.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the Supreme Court\u2019s decision left an option for abortion providers to challenge the Texas law in other ways, the future of the Texas law is yet unknown, leaving many women frustrated and miserable to say the least.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"css-9pa8cd\" draggable=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/E-NeIz7WYAEmNxc?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"Image\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Moreover, more states are moving towards curbing abortions.
