Dr. Jen Gunter: Anatomy of an unsafe abortion
Contains, as you may imagine from the title, a graphic description of medical complications from and treatment for an unsafe abortion.
I was in clinic when I heard the overhead STAT page to the emergency room.
As I sprinted down the stairs, I ran through the possible scenarios. I wasn’t on call, so the day to day gynecologic emergencies weren’t my purview. I hadn’t operated on anyone in the past few weeks, so unlikely to be one of my own patients with a complication.
Logically there was only one conclusion.
