RE: Medicalization of Pregnancy and Childbirth: The History of Midwives To A Male Dominated Doctoral Profession

in #steemstem7 years ago

Welcome, my companion @marxrab
You've hit on a subject that I find interesting and in addition very exasperating.

I've at no other time experienced the expression "medicalization" yet it promptly bodes well. I've additionally not before had such an elucidating mental spotlight cast on the particular case of pregnancy and labor as something that has been torqued from the domain of "typical" and re-cast into a medicinal setting.

Growing up as I have in a general public where the medicalization of pregnancy had just happened, seeing things from that viewpoint appeared to be so typical. I have for quite a while been pulled in to news and stories of birthing specialists, and I even know a fine and fruitful maternity specialist by and by. In any case, I've never fully possessed the capacity to unmistakably state what turned out badly.

Because of your article, I now observe and comprehend the change from regarding pregnancy as typical to regarding it as something strange. I now comprehend the issue all the more obviously and in a way that I will starting now and into the foreseeable future have the capacity to verbalize. Much obliged to you!
I'm sad I missed voting in favor of your prior article, yet I should cure that.
