OB/Gyns are going to the Hill tomorrow to advocate for inclusion of pregnant and lactating people in clinical studies because “The way to protect patients is THROUGH research, not FROM research.” - @KavitaShahArora @ACOGAction #CLC2023

* ACOG - The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
