(CNN) Milla Jovovich is the latest actress to reveal that she had an abortion, while criticizing abortion bills in Georgia and other states.

The "Hellboy" and "Resident Evil" star wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday that she underwent an "emergency abortion" two years ago, when she was filming on location in Eastern Europe and was 4½ months pregnant.

"I went into pre term labor and told that I had to be awake for the whole procedure," she wrote. "It was one of the most horrific experiences I have ever gone through. I still have nightmares about it. I was alone and helpless."

On Monday, "The Good Place" actress Jameela Jamil wrote on Twitter that she had an abortion when she was young, and "it was the best decision I have ever made."

Thousands of people on both sides of the issue responded to the actresses' posts.
