I added a blurb with an email policy (Welborn protocol.) We’re so gratified that people have taken the time to write in — thank you so much!
Also added permalinks to blogs After abortion and The SICLE cell. They’re in their own little section above the St Blog’s links.
Ashli’s story infuriates me. There is so much that is unknown about women’s reproductive health, yet when self-styled women’s advocacy groups talk about “women’s health,” all they’re talking about is contraception and abortion.
I have polycystic ovary syndrome and consulted three or four doctors before I finally got a diagnosis (not counting my husband’s correct diagnosis — which he made by comparing my symptoms to the ones listed in a newspaper article.) Last year I consulted a “conventional” reproductive endocrinologist about treatment. He offered a great deal of eye-rolling when I proffered my NaPro charts, and went on to discuss the various Pill options (yuk), Clomid (morally acceptable, but it makes me queasy), and IVF (double yuk). Some choice! He then went on to tell me that there wasn’t anything he could do for me while I was breastfeeding, so I should come back after Hambet weaned.
