Raped women won’t get pills through the mail soon. It’s mifepristone today. It’ll be misopristol tomorrow — and the birth control pill (yes! See EPA TESTING GROUNDWATER) after that.

This is REALLY gonna piss off the forced birth brigade, because misopristol is safe & used worldwide for all kinds of conditions. So banning it will be an uphill battle, but anti-science fuckos love a challenge. Especially when the it's decimating our human right to healthcare.

It is infuriating how much this has been minimized. Cervical biopsy was the most excruciating pain I've ever felt and I was supposed to be okay with ibuprofen and misopristol (the latter does bupkus for pain but is supposed to make it easier. It did not).
A major medical group now recommends pain-blocking treatments for IUD insertion and other procedures amid a growing recognition that women's pain should be treated.

I heard it on the grapevine that Donald Trump wants to have those he deems "drug dealers" put to death.
Don't get it twisted; he's not referring to shit like cocaine, fentanyl or crystal meth.
He's talking about Mifeprestone. Misopristol. HRT meds.
Fuck Trump and everyone who voted for him.

I’d just like to take this opportunity to mention that, as a former pharmaceutical organic chemist, I would be more than able and willing to produce enough Mifepristone and Misopristol in my garage to supply every woman of child bearing age in this county with 5 therapeutic dosages a year.

This story is gutting. It's unconscionable that the doctor gave misopristol to a woman with a blood clotting disorder who had already bled so much she needed two blood infusions instead of doing a D&C. And it's bullshit that the hospital won't be transparent about how they treat such cases.
NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all.
Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

Today I experienced gender-affirming care (IUD insertion for symptoms of menopause) & used an “abortion drug” (misopristol, to softens the cervix to ease IUD placement).
I’m not sorry if you think that’s TMI. Not talking plainly about women’s health care is partly why we’re in this mess. 1/2

I mean, if courts can ignore agencies, why would they not take another stab at FDA & mifepristone & misopristol? It’s not a great outlook for any U.S. resident’s health/safety, but esp not for those who can get pregnant.
