The Moonfall actress then reviewed a series of medical circumstances in which a woman's life could be endangered if they could not receive an abortion.

Berry wrote: 'The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy is abortion. The treatment for a septic uterus is abortion. The treatment for a miscarriage that your body won't release is abortion. If you can't get those abortions, you die. You. Die.'

The Monster's Ball star also shared a link in her bio to the National Network of Abortion Funds, an organization which aims 'to remove financial and logistical barriers to abortion access by centering people who have abortions and organizing at the intersections of racial, economic, and reproductive justice.'

The Bruised actress and filmmaker spoke out on social media following Friday's ruling, which is expected to result in bans on abortions in about half of the states.

Following the ruling, clinics in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, South Dakota, Wisconsin and West Virginia ceased performing abortions, with other states limiting options based on varied stipulations.

President Joe Biden said Friday's ruling marked 'a sad day for the court and for the country,' adding that 'this decision must not be the final word.'

The controversial decision led to nationwide protests, including outside of the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., and cities including New York City, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston, Phoenix and Seattle.

Amid the overturning by Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, Thomas said his peers on the court should look into reversing past Supreme Court rulings on issues including contraceptive use and same-sex marriage, among others.
