this article is very much talking about pregnant people specifically but this happened almost verbatim to me when doctors thought my organ failure had to do with my uterus, this thing where they just send you home without an exam if they think the problem is anything to do with reproductive organs wasn’t even rare before all this legislation got going. afab people can literally be projectile vomiting and bleeding in an emergency room and be sent home more than once with ibuprofen and now doctors have even more excuse to do it this is so cool and normal
i wasn’t septic (yet) but i got sent home multiple times with breast abscesses from breastfeeding. i don’t know what the fuck is going on with ER docs but y’all gotta get your shit together.
