 A state has the power to prohibit abortions after fetal viability, as long as the law holds exceptions for pregnancies, which endanger a women's life or health, but the case also retained and reaffirmed the right of privacy, which were determined in "Griswold v. Connecticut" (1965) and affirmed in the holding of "Roe v Wade" 410 U.S. 113 (1973).Another topic in the case was the prohibition of advertising suppressing commercial speech about any contraceptive device.The Court held that such speech is protected by Amendment I AND may not be prohibited because it concerns subjects offending the public's sensibilities.
