Birthing Instincts

#321 What Happened to the Precautionary Principle?


Listen Later

Protection from untested interventions has long been the basis for ethical decisions in medicine and especially pregnancy. So what happened? Blyss & Dr. Stu discuss the wisdom of Naturopathy and the attack on longstanding principles and wisdom from many fronts. ACOG changes ethics and the Arrive Trial isn't all that we were sold.

In this episode, Dr. Stu and Blyss cover the ACOG Committee Statement No. 6: Ethical Considerations for the Delivery of Obstetric and Gynecologic Care During a Pandemic.

They scrutinize the risks associated with untested products for pregnant and breastfeeding women, the ethics of using such products, and heartrending news of sudden cardiac events in young people. The ebbs and flows of this conversation lead to the significance of finding a healthcare provider that resonates with your beliefs.

Key highlights:

  • Vaccines, Child Visits, and Medical Ethics
  • Corruption in the Medical World
  • Nature's Importance and Preventive Actions
  • Ethics and Vaccination in a Pandemic
  • The ARRIVE Trial's Impact on Induction Rates
