Final answer:

In Ohio, minors must gain parental or judicial consent for an abortion, and women must be informed of health consequences, but spousal notification is not required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Ohio, specific laws concerning abortion require minors to gain the consent of a parent or judge before proceeding with the procedure. This means that parents must be notified before an abortion unless a judicial bypass is granted. Additionally, Ohio law mandates that women receive information about the health consequences of having an abortion. However, women are not required to notify their spouses before obtaining an abortion.

It should be noted that Ohio law also stipulates that women must make more than one visit to an abortion clinic before the procedure is performed, to ensure informed consent.
