Hufferpost should banned from this site they are nothing but liars and spread hate..
there is nothing extreme about this procedure..women have a cold shiny thing that looks like a duck bill used on them all the time for a frikken PAP SMEAR
And it's a woman's CHOICE to have a PAP Smear.
Damn, you're thick.
I think you're the one being thick here. Sure, no law says we have to go get a physical each year. Obamacare might change that, who knows.
Thing is, if you go to the doctor with symptoms of heart trouble, it is your choice to have tests done before the doctor treats you, but you won't get treated unless the tests are done.
Just because a woman wants an abortion doesn't mean everything is fine. It could be a tubal pregnancy or other problems could be present, so why should the doctor go in blind?
If they don't want the test, then they must not want an abortion.
If you don't want the x-ray, maybe you don't want your broken leg put in a cast.
If you don't want an MRI or other tests, then you must not want your health problem addressed.
You don't want dental x-rays, then you must not want your tooth fixed.
You don't just go in and say give me this or that procedure. Doctors should do whatever is necessary to ensure the abortion is done safe and that means looking for potential risks or other conditions.
What part of that don't you get?
Would you prefer that women risk their health or their lives over an abortion? It's a matter of being safe and nothing more. Damn near every medical test or procedure can be deemed intrusive. Get over it. You want abortions, let the doctors do tests beforehand and avoid tragedies and lawsuits.
