  • Annual Exams

    Thank you so much for this podcast. I’m thinking women of child bearing age, living in states that ban abortions, should call their legislators to schedule their annual OBGYN exam, since the politicians seem to know more about women’s reproductive health than actual doctors.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Shenanigans at the 5th Circus Court With RaeShandra Lias & Nikki Sapiro Vinckier
Q: Why are these opponents citing off-label use and misrepresenting safety data?
Because the core objective is control and access restriction; the cited data are often taken out of proper clinical context or come from non-peer-reviewed sources to support political aims.
Shenanigans at the 5th Circus Court With RaeShandra Lias & Nikki Sapiro Vinckier
Q: What is the misoprostol-only option and how does it compare to the standard regimen in terms of effectiveness and user experience?
Misoprostol-only is safer to use than nothing, but generally less effective and longer, with potentially more discomfort and more uncertain outcomes, compared to the Mifepristone-misoprostol combination.
Shenanigans at the 5th Circus Court With RaeShandra Lias & Nikki Sapiro Vinckier
Q: Can we talk about what it means if the courts allow mail-delivery of Mifepristone to continue while the case goes through the courts?
If allowed, access would persist via mail and telehealth, but providers would still navigate a patchwork of state rules; the broader fight remains about whether access should be restricted at all, not about safety.
Warm Wet Hole With Lupe M. Rodríguez & Max Higgins
Q: How can listeners help and get involved with Latina Institute?
She encourages diverse forms of involvement—from online advocacy and volunteering to donating and participating in trainings and Adopt-A-Corner programs.
Warm Wet Hole With Lupe M. Rodríguez & Max Higgins
Q: What impact are you seeing from immigration enforcement on access to healthcare for pregnant people?
Rodríguez describes people avoiding clinics due to ICE, leading to missed appointments and worse public health outcomes, and notes efforts to connect with midwives and home-based care.
