Mifepristone & Women’s Health: What the Headlines Leave Out | Dr. Christina Francis, MD
Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark
How Mifepristone and Misoprostol Work
Christina explains pharmacology: mifepristone blocks progesterone; misoprostol induces contractions and heavy bleeding.
Every 49 seconds in America, an abortion happens — not in a clinic, not under medical supervision, but quietly through the mail.
In this episode of Culture Apothecary, I’m joined by Dr. Christina Francis, board-certified OB/GYN and CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, to expose what almost no health and wellness podcast will touch. We tackle the real physical risks of abortion pills, what happens when women are left to manage serious complications alone, and the overlooked environmental impact of fetal tissue and blood entering our water systems.
