This week, we found gross flyers around our building complex with my and my business partner's photos, the name of our Chief Operating Officer, our address, and our email. Image Our doors aren’t even open yet and anti-abortion asshats are trying to intimidate us. Trying to pit our neighbors against us.

On the topic of treatment of ectopic pregnancy and what it’s called (a 🧵): we are definitely taught in OB/GYN residency that treatment of an ectopic is not an abortion. But as wise people say: when you know better, do better. Treatment of ectopic pregnancy involves interrupting the pregnancy with medication or surgery, just as we would do for an induced abortion.

Today I did a 2-page prior auth so a patient could get 2 tablets of azithromycin to treat her chlamydia. Because @Aetna has been dicking around trying not to cover a generic, readily available medication, it's now almost 2 weeks since diagnosis & she hasn't been treated yet. I've done prior auths for a thousand other medications but this is a first for me. Isn't it cost-saving to treat STIs before they become PID, cause infertility, or get passed along to a partner? Why would an insurance company make it harder (or impossible!) to get treated?

I will do a point-by-point thread on this when I have time later today, but for now I’d like to emphasize that you SHOULD NOT TAKE MEDICAL ADVICE FROM THE FEDERALIST. This article is illogical word salad quackery, and it’s dangerous. #ectopicpregnancy #abortion 1/ Ok, here's my [very lengthy] full response to this. It’s hard to even know where to start with this article, because so much of it is so, so wrong. The first and most important thing to note is that you should NOT get your medical advice from the Federalist.

And you call yourself a feminist.

Please take a minute and ask yourself why you don’t seem to have room in your feminism for ppl who need more than one abortion (and who aren’t ashamed). There are all kinds of reasons ppl might need >1 abortion (I feel a thread coming on). Ppl who can get #pregnant can spend >35 years of reproductive life trying not to get pregnant. If typical use failure rates for #contraceptive methods like the pill or patch are ~9%, you’re almost inevitably going to have at least one failure in a lifetime.
