Continuing our Rewriting the Narrative series with the term “therapeutic abortion.” This phrase can feel dismissive and fails to honor the gravity and emotional weight of a medically necessary abortion. It oversimplifies an experience that carries profound emotional and physical significance. By reframing it as “medically indicated abortion” or “health-preserving abortion,” we adopt language that reflects the care and necessity behind the decision—offering clarity, compassion, and respect. 🌱 As we approach the new year, let’s continue to create space for language that acknowledges complexity, fosters empathy, and supports those navigating fertility care. 💛 Together, we’re reshaping the conversation. #RewritingTheNarrative #FertilityJourney #CompassionateCare
