Summary

Abortion. The phrase “uterine evacuation” can create tension and line people up on opposite sides of the abortion issue, with no recognition of its safety, commonplace occurrence and health or life-saving capabilities. Due to the dichotomized and politicized nature of abortion, in some places it is difficult to teach health care providers how to empty a uterus, even in a life-threatening situation.Early pregnancy loss (EPL) management can provide an entry point for this education, as well as a way to destigmatize the uterine aspiration procedure and medical treatment because, although management is the same as for “elective abortion” the indication is different; with an abortion, a pregnancy is terminated that would otherwise likely continue, while with EPL, the pregnancy has ceased to be viable. This difference is subtle, yet concrete and profound for many.
