How should we discuss âabortion reversalâ with our patients (when practicing in states where it is legally required)?
okay actually this is a trick question⌠because I canât tell you to break the laws in whatever state youâre practicing inâŚ

So-called abortion âreversalâ procedures are unproven and unethical.
