Former Planned Parenthood President Says Abortion Provider Tried to Exploit Her Miscarriage

Share:

Dr. Leana Wen, the short-lived president of Planned Parenthood, has revealed in her new book that the abortion giant tried to exploit her miscarriage for its benefit.

The former Baltimore health commissioner served a mere eight months as head of Planned Parenthood, from 2018 into 2019. When she left, Wen cited “philosophical differences” with the abortion business after the organization’s board voted her out of the lead position.

That, however, is not the narrative Planned Parenthood wanted the public to hear, according to Wen, who wrote about the ordeal in her new book, Lifelines: A Doctor’s Journey in the Fight for Public Health.

Wen claimed the organization urged her to blame her exit on grief from her miscarriage, which she was very open about.

The emergency physician wrote in a 2019 editorial for The Washington Post that she “felt numb” when she learned she had experienced a miscarriage, adding she penned the piece in order to “break the silence and shame that often come with pregnancy loss.”

In her book, the emergency physician described her miscarriage as “devastating in a way that I couldn’t have anticipated,” noting her pain was only compounded when Planned Parenthood suggested she use the loss to explain away her departure from the company in July 2019.

“This was offensive and hurtful on so many levels,” she wrote.

Wen, who has two kids, wrote she “could not fathom the additional trauma if this news were made public by others who wished to use it for their own purposes.”

She ultimately made the decision to write the Post column “so as not to have this deeply personal experience stolen from me.” {eoa}
