How To Have Abortions At Home Video Transcript
I got called to the emergency departmentlast night there was a young girl that
they brought in she was pregnant she was
having abdominal pain it seemed out of a
portion to what was going on she was 12
weeks pregnant was having a little bit
of spotting after a lot of questioning
from the emergency room doctor and
myself we finally figured out and she
had taken cytotec she had taken to my
mouth and put one inside her vagina
inside it Tech is a drug that we use to
induce labor in women and it's sold in
the markets of Haiti apparently it's for
a very high price abortion is illegal in
pregnancies are going to the market and
purchasing the dragon and just taking it
at home apparently a lot of them end up
in the emergency department it was very
hard to get that information out of her
I finally asked her I thought she might
have been an instrument inside but I
finally said what did you put inside
your vagina and her family her boyfriend
finally told us and she took medication
in there so she did abort without a
complication but it's very sad to see
these young women they have no means of
birth control and really no other
in this she's fine she went home I had a
very long talk with her boyfriend about
using condoms I've been head of long
talk with her about saying no to him if
he does not put a condom on so hopefully
she will not be back I think that was a
very horrible experience for her and
hopefully we can reduce the number of
women having to do that if we can get
them some kind of contraception so
that's my goal for next time thank you
