6. Women's Sexual + Reproductive Health...
... or The Deafening Silence Around Miscarriages.
"I think women are just waiting longer [to get pregnant]...It's maybe not the first thing on their minds anymore about having children. But not that they don't want to but I think most women are totally invested in themselves and their career." - Michele
According to the CDC, about 10% of all women in the United States aged 15–44 years have difficulty getting pregnant or staying pregnant. Relatedly, a large number of these same women who experience reproductive challenges, do so in silence and by themselves. We seek to shed some light on this topic by having a frank and honest conversation about women's sexual and reproductive health. Michele Lew is a family medicine nurse and has been in the medical field for over 20 years. Doris Quintanilla is the Executive Director and Co-Founder of The Melanin Collective who has spent extensive time in the community health space with La Clinica de la Raza and The Association of Reproductive Health Professionals.
