Women and families benefit from access to the full spectrum of reproductive care, including family-planning services. We commend our family-planning colleagues on their tireless dedication to preserve the rights of women through advocacy. While several of our perinatology peers have also set an example by dedication to these issues, advocacy for patient access to reproductive care options has not been a focus of the larger perinatology community. The time has come for individual perinatologists, as well as the overall perinatology community, to join them and do the work needed to preserve access to safe care, including contraception and abortion services. In this call to action, we detail several ways that individuals and the community can become more involved in working for reproductive rights.
妇女和家庭受益于能够获得全面的生殖保健服务,包括计划生育服务。我们赞扬我们计划生育领域的同行们不懈努力,通过倡导来维护妇女的权利。虽然我们围产医学领域的一些同行也通过致力于这些问题树立了榜样,但倡导患者获得生殖保健选择尚未成为更广泛围产医学界的重点。现在是个别围产医学专家以及整个围产医学界加入他们行列的时候了,开展必要的工作以确保能够获得安全的保健服务,包括避孕和堕胎服务。在这一行动呼吁中,我们详细阐述了个人和社区可以更积极参与争取生殖权利工作的几种方式。
