In this episode, Dr. Goodwin is joined by Dr. Julie Amaon, a family medicine doctor who works with nonprofit telemedicine abortion provider Just the Pill, to unpack the facts about the abortion pill. As we stare down the barrel of a Roe v. Wade overturn, how are providers filling abortion access gaps with telehealth and medication abortion?
How does the abortion pill work? How long has medication abortion been available? Is it safe? (The answer’s yes!) Is it legal? (Yes!) Is it effective? (Extremely.)
“This was a pandemic project. I tell people, some people had sourdough projects. Our executive director was solving rural abortion access during the pandemic. That was her pandemic project.” — Dr. Julie Amaon
“This is the only area of healthcare where we just don’t trust our patients. It’s ridiculous, really.” — Dr. Julie Amaon
“Pregnant patients and my patients know exactly what they want. I don’t do options counseling. Most people know exactly what they want when they get here. I’m not trying to patronize them or act like they don’t already know their options. Right?” — Dr. Julie Amaon
“One in four people in their reproductive health years choose [to end a pregnancy with abortion]. This is very common. It’s very safe, and I don’t think until you have to go through this process yourself that you really realize how hard it is for people to get these services and to get this general reproductive healthcare that they need. The hoops are kind of ridiculous.” — Dr. Julie Amaon
