WASHINGTON: Jessy Rosales did not realise she was pregnant for weeks. When she found out, Rosales - a 20-year-old college student at the time - hid it from her family, whose judgement she feared, and struggled to find an abortion clinic that would accept her student health insurance.
The Los Angeles resident scrambled for more than a month in 2016 to save the US$700 needed for the procedure and was failing her classes due to the stress. Rosales managed to end her pregnancy at around 16 weeks.
