- 요약Access to sexual and reproductive healthcare is key to women's overall health. Yet, in the United States, there are notable disparities in which women are able to access sexual and reproductive healthcare. Detailed research has focused on how factors such as individual-level socioeconomic status, race, immigration status, and experiences of patient-centered care, shape disparities in access to sexual and reproductive healthcare. Yet relatively less research has focused on the association between upstream factors - including social policies and social conditions - and sexual and reproductive healthcare. This dissertation contributes to our understanding of how upstream social factors are associated with disparities in access to sexual and reproductive healthcare through three cases. First, I examine how women's use of different contraceptive methods and their ability to use their preferred method differs by state level structural sexism. Additionally, I examine whether these differences by state-level structural sexism emerge for all women or whether health insurance type moderates these relationships. To answer this question, I use the 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and a state-level measure of structural sexism. Second, I consider how prescription contraceptive use varies by local-level sexual and reproductive health access and education policies and whether these policies moderate the association between area-level concentrated economic disadvantage and contraceptive use. Here, I leverage data from 2021 National Institute for Reproductive Health's Local Reproductive Freedom Index, the 2019 American Community Survey, and the 2019 Optum®'s de-identified Clinformatics® Data Mart Database of electronic medical records. Third, I consider how women's pregnancy-based deservingness shapes their access to Medicaid and their consequent ability to access sexual and reproductive healthcare. To explore this question, I draw upon 38 in-depth interviews that I conducted with women living in Indiana between 2022 and 2023. Overall, findings across these chapters highlight the centrality of health insurance in women's access to sexual and reproductive healthcare and the potential for social forces and policies, beyond women's control to influence patterns of sexual and reproductive healthcare use. Social forces and policies, like structural sexism, sexual and reproductive health policy, and Medicaid policy are upstream factors have the potential to shape women's sexual and reproductive healthcare utilization. In sum, my dissertation advances our understanding of how social policies and social contexts are associated with sexual and reproductive healthcare access.
