The pro aborts have been claiming this is some horrendous invasive procedure when in fact most abortion facilities already do it to determine fetal age (whether they can send you home with a ru-486 pill .. their highest profit procedure or do a surgical abortion and determine the rate they will charge) ... The machines are dirt cheap , made in China and can be found on eBay for about $1100 with shipping..heres an example

In the end this will be (for PP) a profitable exercise as it will be one more "non-abortion" procedure they can charge medicare/medicaid for.
I had a trans-vaginal ultrasound. It was either when I was pregnant and could not empty my bladder or it was prior to surgery for a tubal pregnancy.
Either way, it was weird. The tech covered the appropriately shaped transducer with a condom and handed it to me. I didn't even get a cigarette when she was done.
