The MDM

The Infuriating State of Women's Health with Jessica Adkins Murphy and Melissa Puffenbarger

August 08, 2024 Tama Thé Season 1 Episode 5

Jess Adkins Murphy is an Emergency Medicine physician and a Harvard Health Policy and Social Emergency medicine Fellow. 
Melissa Puffenbarger is a Pediatric Emergency Medicine physician.

Both women had miscarriages in the last 6 months and because they live in Kentucky, they couldn't get Mifepristone, which is the standard of care, and both suffered consequences.  We walk through the history, safety profile, and the political turmoil around Mifepristone, and what you can do for women in similar situations.
