Women’s Healthcare

“Planned Parenthood, which provides 2.7 million women, men and young
people with healthcare every year, including affordable birth control and
family planning counseling, lifesaving cancer screenings and well-woman
exams” (Smith, 2015). There is controversy around planned parenthood,
because many don’t realize that it is not just a place for abortions. They
provide many services to those in need.
Homelessness and Healthcare
As you know if you read my information effect, birth control is not just
to prevent pregnancy. It is also very helpful to regulating periods and
controlling pain from cramps. For some women it is very important to
have birth control, otherwise they could be in a lot of pain with
extremely heavy periods.
Teen Pregnancy
Teen pregnancy is
starting to become a
very big issue. An
aspect of healthcare is
also education. It is
important that young
people are educated
on the dangers, and
how to prevent
problems such as teen
pregnancy. It is also
important that in many
different situations you
show your loved ones
support.
Feminine Products
Breastfeeding can be a
controversial topic when it
comes to breastfeeding in
public. The fact is that it is natural
and babies need the nutrients.
When we are denying women
the right and comfort to
breastfeed in public we are
denying a baby its food. When it
comes to healthcare we need to
be open minded and helping.
