IUD/S Placement NEW Guidance: Was It Racism Before?
Saturday, 17 May, 2025
In August 2024, the CDC updated its MEC. This included a recommendation for local anesthesia for IUD/S placement and also had guidance regarding misoprostol for that procedure.

What about misoprostol? Was the non-use of local anesthesia for these office-based procedures rooted in racism and sexism? Listen in for details.
