Personal experience with an abortion is valuable caregiving capital for abortion doulas like Thompson, who advocate for patients as they navigate the procedure. Like birth doulas, who provide support during pregnancy, labor and the postpartum period, abortion doulas offer comfort and guidance that complements a patient’s medical care. That support can include raising funds, offering transportation and providing companionship before, during and after medication and surgical abortions.
