Abortion Clinics Injure Three Women in Botched Abortions Just Days Apart
Ricardo Pinedo | July 17, 2025 | Chicago, Illinois
Three separate medical emergencies were reported in January 2025 following botched abortion procedures at three different clinics in Chicago. Each incident involved women experiencing serious complications and required emergency medical intervention.
The first emergency occurred on the morning of January 18 at the Near North Health Center Planned Parenthood facility. A 19-year-old woman reportedly suffered a uterine perforation following an abortion procedure. According to 911 dispatch records, the patient was still sedated at the time of the call. The clinic worker who contacted emergency services was hesitant to disclose the nature of the emergency. When asked by the dispatcher what happened, the caller referred to “a minor complication” after a procedure. Later, she admitted it was a uterine perforation.
Uterine perforation is a common complication of surgical abortion that can be life-threatening and demand immediate intervention.

The July 15 ruling came in response to a challenge by GenBioPro, a Nevada-based manufacturer of mifepristone, which argued that the FDA’s approval of the drug should override the state ban. The court rejected that claim in a 2-1 decision, affirming West Virginia’s authority to regulate abortion within its borders.

The decision, authored by Justice Neil Gorsuch, decided that the federal Medicaid Act does not confer a right to choose any qualified medical provider and that South Carolina has the authority as a state to remove Planned Parenthood from its status as a qualified provider.
