By American standards, New York City is a very progressive city in offering sexual and reproductive health care services. Abortion is legal and widely accessible, and Planned Parenthood facilities exist in all five boroughs. There is an especially large concentration of clinics in Manhattan and Brooklyn, but clinics can be found throughout the city. However, it should be noted that some parts of the city are more conservative than others, and there have been cases of pharmacies refusing treatment, such as Plan B, to people in the past. | By American standards, New York City is a very progressive city in offering sexual and reproductive health care services.
