Abortion Pill By Mail? MyCatholicDoctor Fights Back By Providing Abortion Pill Reversal Options
December 20, 2021 – In light of the recent news that the United States FDA will now permanently allow the abortion pill by mail, MyCatholicDoctor holds its ground to continue to offer abortion pill reversal across state lines.
On Thursday, December 16th, The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) removed the requirement for patients to pick up abortion medication in person, allowing for the pill to be sent via mail.
Kathleen Berchelmann, M.D., Co-founder of MyCatholicDoctor, shared her remarks regarding this announcement: “Jesus Christ called us to heal the sick and proclaim that the kingdom of God is near (Luke 10:9), and we believe we are His hands here on earth, providing healing to those who fear they have no other option by providing that type of care to those who want to reverse the decision of taking an abortion pill.
MyCatholicDoctor is the answer to this incredibly heartbreaking decision. We offer abortion pill reversal across state lines and provide postabortion care across state lines. We offer Women’s Health and Fertility from a Catholic perspective across state lines, providing resources and care to women who feel that they have no option. We are an affordable healthcare option and will find that you receive care, regardless of your ability to pay.”
If we care about the health of a woman, it starts with caring about the health of the complete woman, including the baby she is carrying.
Access to telemedicine is important for patients, especially in the world we live in today. Telemedicine has provided the means to receive the healthcare someone needs when they can’t get an appointment with their current provider, are seeking other options for care, or simply want a second opinion. It provides an easy, accessible, and convenient option for many, decreasing the stress many may experience in scheduling appointments, the drive time to get there, and extended waiting room stays. Telemedicine has been a great step forward in creating safe, easy access to care. Telemedicine increases healthcare access, but there are risks to both mother and baby by allowing access to abortion pills by mail. Not to mention, the emotional, social, and spiritual permanent damage this does to a woman’s soul.
MyCatholicDoctor currently has eight physicians providing abortion pill reversal, which uses hormonal medications to stop the effects of chemical abortion after a woman has taken the first or second pill. In December of 2021, we hope to launch our abortion pill reversal immediate access system. As a pro-life and pro-eternal life organization, we will continue to fight for the rights of the most vulnerable.
