Senate Hearing on Abortion Drugs

Senate Hearing on Abortion Drugs

During a Senate hearing about abortion drugs, Senator Josh Hawley asked Dr. Nisha Verma, an expert in reproductive health, if men can get pregnant.

Dr. Verma hesitated to answer, saying she cares for patients of various gender identities and that the question was being used as a political tool.

Hawley insisted on a direct answer, stating that biological reality shows only women can get pregnant.

Dr. Verma defended her approach, emphasizing the importance of science and the complex experiences of her patients.

The discussion highlighted the tension between biological facts and inclusive medical practices.
