The U.S. carceral system is in the business of making reproductive choices for its inmates. In this episode, I examine some of the ways that incarceration controls women's reproduction. Some are forced to carry unwanted pregnancies. Others leave prison unable to get pregnant ever again, and they don't always know it.
