People -regardless of race, religion, or age- have the right to food, shelter, and adequate health care. However, due to the changes in the Texas Women’s Health Program, many women may not be able to afford the expensive of health care. Planned Parenthood is no longer covered by the low-income state insurance plan because the organization offers abortion services (Texas Women’s). Politicians, such as Texas Governor Rick Perry argue that the revised program is “great news for Texas women” (Kou). Unfortunately Perry is no different than Carl N. Karcher; both men believe they made “Progress” in their decisions (Schlosser, 28). Karcher only sees the “Progress” being made in his hometown and how the success can benefit him, while Perry only sees a way to segregate clinics which are pro-choice and not how it affects the female population of the state. While the program offers a list of clinics that are covered, many of them are run by male doctors; this might prevent a woman who has been sexually abused to receive the care she needs and are inconveniently located. Allowing Planned Parenthood to be covered by the revised insurance would improve these problems. The clinics are run only by women, located in every major city, and offer all the services covered by Texas Women’s Health (Benefits/Sexual Health Topics). However, contrary to what many people believe, Planned Parenthood was not created as an abortion clinic, but as a clinic which specialized in women’s health care services

Heart disease is the top health threat for women in America. More women are affected from heart disease than all cancers combined. Anyone is at risk to develop heart disease; most people believe heart disease is associated with men but more women die from it each year. It is the number one killer of men and women in America. In the August 2015 issue of Woman’s Day Magazine, “The Health Issue You Must Discuss” author, Barbara Brody, is successful in using pathos and logos to convince women to become educated and get the word out about heart disease.

L. is suspected of having endometriosis based on her clinical symptoms. Individuals with endometriosis have similar symptoms as B. L. Endometriosis is an abnormal growth of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus with accompanying symptoms of severe dysmenorrheal, pelvic pain and oftentimes infertility (Bouazz, Mashiach, Cohen, Kedem, Baron, Zajicek, & Soriano, 2018). Other symptoms of endometriosis are abnormal uterine bleeding, gastrointestinal and genitourinary symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, and dysuria (Dun et al., 2015). Being that B. L’s labs were negative, and her symptoms were refractory to medical treatment, a diagnosis was made based on her severe pelvic pain without evidence of pathology (Dun et al.,

The first stage of labor actually has two phases itself. The first phase is called early labor. During early labor you should start to feel something like light cramps. It is also common to feel pressure in your lower back. This is the start of what is called “contractions”. Contractions help your uterus (female reproductive organ) stretch and relax,

Birth of a child can be such a happy time, especially when the little one is very healthy. We all have seen the movies when a new child is born, some of us are lucky to see it first hand. Some of us do get goose bumps, me being one of them. It is just so exciting to see that little life come out of what has been in that big belly for nine months. We sometimes refer to the birth of a child as labor. If only it was as easy as the name sounds. However, it is not. There are three main stages in birth. The first stage is the longest stage that can last 12 to 14 hours with the first birth, and later births are shorter. Dilation and effacement of the cervix take place here.
