This introduction to the forum of articles on ‘Histories of abortion beyond Roe’ addresses the difficulty of telling abortion (hi)stories without reference to the procedure's legal status. A brief survey of the history of reproductive medical interventions and recent scholarship on US abortion history illustrates how the contemporary concept of ‘abortion’ emerged only once abortion could be narrativised in medical and legal terms as an intentional act. Thus, the stories told about abortion had and continue to have the power to shape abortion's meaning, its history and even its legal status, as summaries of the forum's three articles illustrate.
