Having safe, effective, and accessible options for patients gives them control over their reproductive lives! #OTC #BirthControl #Contraception

Abortion ban exceptions do not actually protect or help patients because they are not meant to. These “exceptions” exist to make anti abortion extremists look reasonable, and they aren’t. Every abortion ban is extreme.

TW: suicide There is an empty corner desk in a resident workroom at GW. Now forever engraved in my mind, that desk is a harrowing reminder of the cost of medical training. In his final words, Dr. William West said that he was simply out of gas, that he had nothing left to give.

"People are putting themselves out there as experts on birth control and speaking to things that the science does not bear out. I am seeing those direct failures of this misinformation," said @thebelmontstop. washingtonpost.com/health/2024/03…

“I am using #Mifepristone on a daily basis… that is how common this medication is”. These restrictions on Mifepristone are not evidence-based and only act to harm patients. We deserve better for every person in this country! #SCOTUS

"When we're talking about medical exceptions in general, it's difficult because the practice of medicine cannot be distilled into a list of exceptions. We have to take into account the entire patient in front of us." - @thebelmontstop.bsky.social 🏳️‍🌈 (he/él) on U.S. State Abortion Bans O'Neill Institute

"When we're talking about abortion bans...it's important to recognize that these bans are in direct violation of medical ethics." - @thebelmontstop.bsky.social 🏳️‍🌈 (he/él) on U.S. State Abortion Bans O'Neill Institute

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act has been critical in ensuring that all people facing a life-threatening emergency can be treated with evidence-based care, regardless of whether abortion is banned in their state. We urge #SCOTUS to preserve #EMTALA’s protections.

Emergency access to abortion care can be the only way to save the lives of people experiencing complications caused or exacerbated by pregnancy. More than two dozen leading medical organizations urge #SCOTUS not to weaken #EMTALA. Read the full statement: bit.ly/3xUtGbG

Abortion misinformation is dangerous. When it comes to safe, compassionate, evidence-based abortion care, it’s critical to learn the facts.

Make sure to stop by and learn about all the programs we offer! #ACOG2024

BREAKING: #SCOTUS just ruled in the case on mifepristone. This means patients around the country can continue getting access to the affirming abortion care they need! As physicians, we're so relieved that this safe and essential medication will remain accessible.

Throughout the judicial assault on mifepristone, the U.S. FDA has consistently affirmed its safety for use in medication abortion and miscarriage management. Now, our organizations ask the FDA to permanently drop the remaining burdensome REMS requirements. bit.ly/4etSKqt

So proud to call Sarah Horvath, MD, MSHP a colleague and friend! Excellent work advocating for science and patient centered care!

Pay attention to the language people use when talking about #abortion, because it’s intentional. Learn what not to say so you don’t accidentally perpetuate bias.
