The Emma Goldman Clinic is a non-profit
organization that depends on community support. Every purchase from the
'Emma Store' helps us continue our educational programs and helps us keep
our services within financial reach.
This site
is meant for people to ask questions about reproduction, sexuality,
birth control, abortion, sexual health, and related topics. If you have
other questions about the Emma Goldman Clinic, the prices for their
services, making donations, etc., or anything you do not want answered
publicly, please call the clinic at 319-337-2111 or toll-free at
1-800-848-7684.
The health information provided by this
service is not intended or implied to be a substitute for professional
medical advice. Nothing stated by this service should be used for
medical diagnosis or treatment. If you have an urgent medical
problem call 911 immediately or contact your healthcare provider. If you
would like a personal, or immediate response to your question call the
clinic at 319-337-2111 or 1800-848-7684. We cannot diagnose any
medical condition. If you have a condition you would like to be
diagnosed, contact your physician.
THIS IS NOT WHERE YOU
SHOULD ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT SYMPTOMS RELATED TO A RECENT ABORTION, OR
INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR CARE AFTER AN ABORTION. YOU NEED TO BRING THOSE
QUESTIONS TO THE CLINIC THAT PERFORMED YOUR ABORTION.
All questions will be read by a staff
member at the Emma Goldman Clinic, but due to the volume received, only
a few will be chosen to be posted on the web or featured in other
venues. Questions will be checked weekly. We will not post submissions
that have already been asked, so please read through previous posts.
Once submitted, any question may be used
by the Emma Goldman Clinic for any purpose. We may not post every
question submitted. If you have an urgent problem call 911 or contact
your health care provider. In any case, do not expect an answer
immediately, or on any specific timeframe.
We occasionally edit questions for length.
Questions also are occasionally corrected for spelling or changed
slightly to make more clear. We try to alter the questions as little as
possible. When there is a question that we cannot understand, we do not
post it.
"Ask Emma!" is a service of the Emma
Goldman Clinic, which is located in Iowa City, Iowa, United States. We
do not necessarily know how medical procedures or policies work in other
countries or regions.
If you would like a personal, or
immediate response to your question, or if you would like to make an
appointment, call the clinic at 319-337-2111 or 1800-848-7684
