An Introduction to Vacuum Aspiration
Manage episode 304017079 series 2991562
On this episode, Beth, an abortion advocate with many years working alongside healthcare professionals, will give us an introduction on the vacuum aspiration method, also known as in-clinic abortions or procedural abortions
**edit: after the release of this episode I learnt that using the phrase 'surgical abortion' to describe the vacuum aspiration method is misleading and inaccurate, because the procedure isn't a surgery and doesn't involve any cutting or suturing. In this episode we use the phrase surgical abortion, but from now on the podcast uses procedural abortion or in-clinic abortion to refer to abortions conducted through vacuum aspiration.
