INFO:

PLEASE SHARE TO REPLACE THEIR SENSATIONALIZED CONTENT WITH ACCURATE INFO FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS! Evie Magazine has NO BUSINESS “educating” on this topic. They have NO IDEA what is clinically happening in states with AB bansu002Frestrictions. They are minimizing the lives lost as a DIRECT RESULT of these bansu002Frestrictions with their sensationalized posts and have no interest in making this country a safer place to be pregnant and give birth. WHO: Abortion care encompasses care related to miscarriage (spontaneous abortion and missed abortion), induced abortion (the deliberate interruption of an ongoing pregnancy by medical or surgical means), incomplete abortion as well as fetal death (intrauterine fetal demise). *These are all intrauterine pregnancies. CDC: For the purpose of surveillance, a legal induced abortion is defined as an intervention performed by a licensed clinician within the limits of state regulations, that is intended to terminate a suspected or known ongoing INTRAUTERINE pregnancy and that does not result in a live birth. Most states and reporting areas that collect abortion data report if an abortion was medical or surgical. Medical abortions are legal procedures that use medications instead of surgery. Ectopic pregnancy is not included in abortion statistics. ACGME: The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education is the body responsible for accrediting all graduate medical training programs for physicians in the United States, including OBGYN residents. They must log cases of management of ectopic pregnancy and abortion. Resident Case Log experience with abortions may include a range of surgical or medical UTERINE evacuation techniques. This experience can include uterine aspirations, medical abortions, incomplete abortions, missed abortions, therapeutic abortions, and elective abortions. ECTOPIC PREGNANCY MANAGEMENT IS NOT INCLUDED UNDER ABORTION CASES; they are logged as laparotomy or laparoscopy procedures. Many factors influence or necessitate a person’s decision to have an induced abortion. Contraceptive failure, barriers to contraceptive use and access, pregnancyu002Fparenting is not desired, rape, incest, intimate partner violence, fetal anomalies, illness during pregnancy, and exposure to teratogenic medications. Pregnancy complications, including placental abruption, bleeding from placenta previa, preeclampsia or eclampsia, and cardiac or renal conditions, may be so severe that induced abortion is the only measure to preserve an individual’s health or save their life.
