And yet we have some that would force a woman to get an ultrasound for the opposite reason.
Exactly.
It's a no brainer. The doctor or the abortion provider has to know the age of the fetus.
Ultrasounds are already part of VA Planned Parenthood abortion procedure.
The Virginia League for Planned Parenthood didnt immediately return calls yesterday. But heres what it said on the recording for its abortion services information hotline:
Patients who have a surgical abortion generally come in for two appointments. At the first visit we do a health assessment, perform all the necessary lab work, and do an ultrasound. This visit generally takes about an hour. At the second visit, the procedure takes place. This visit takes about an hour as well. For out of town patients for whom it would be difficult to make two trips to our office, were able to schedule both the initial appointment and the procedure on the same day.
Medical abortions generally require three visits. At the first visit, we do a health assessment, perform all the necessary lab work, and do an ultrasound. This visit takes about an hour. At the second visit, the physician gives the first pill and directions for taking two more pills at home. The third visit is required during which you will have an exam and another ultrasound.
Making abortion an issue in this election is one I welcome.
Let's get down to the truth of it all on any and all levels and cut thru all the bullshit pro death people bazooka barf out of their mouths on a daily basis.
I see. So women should never see any kind of doctor at all, as they might be informed of birth control, or of the fact that the only option is not a back alley abortion.
But, for God's sake, just keep up this line of talk, loud and incessant. See what it does for the women's vote in November.
