Abortion during Covid-19 interview transcripts

This dataset includes 20 interviews with participants in the UK about their experiences of abortion during the Covid-19 pandemic. During this time, emergency regulations were introduced to permit telemedicine for early medical abortion - a telephone consultation and then the medication being sent through the post or by courier. This meant that people could have an early medical abortion at home instead on travelling to a clinic.

Participants were invited to tell their abortion stories from the point of finding out they were pregnant. They were also invited to talk (as applicable) about managing their abortion at home, travelling to access abortion care, and the care and information they received while managing their abortion.

Participants consented to having their anonymised stories shared on the My Body My Life website: mybody-mylife.org.
