Castro went to a Planned Parenthood facility on LaSalle Drive in Chicago, Illinois to get an IUD inserted. &#8220;Following the insertion of the IUD, Morgan felt dizzy,&#8221; the lawsuit reads. &#8220;Morgan informed the healthcare provider of those symptoms. After being informed of Morgan&#8217;s dizziness, the healthcare provider left the room, leaving Morgan alone and unmonitored. Morgan lost consciousness and fell from the table to the ground.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UUXQW0rw8gM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Dizziness and even fainting is not uncommon after IUD insertion, something <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthood.org\/learn\/birth-control\/iud\/whats-an-iud-insertion-like\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Planned Parenthood&#8217;s own website admits<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After falling to the ground, Morgan was allegedly left there, lying unconscious, until the Planned Parenthood staffer eventually came back and found her. She reported pain in her head and neck and was taken via ambulance to Presence St. Joseph&#8217;s Hospital, where several fractures were found in her spine. Her injuries were severe enough that she had to then be transferred to another hospital, where she was fitted with a halo brace.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/whistleblower-planned-parenthood-abortionist-injured-women\/\"><em>Whistleblower: Abortionist severely injured women, and Planned Parenthood did nothing<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While IUDs are increasing in popularity, women are increasingly suffering complications from them.

With Reaves, the abortionist failed to complete the abortion, perforated her uterus, and possibly severed her uterine artery. This led to catastrophic bleeding, which Planned Parenthood staffers did nothing about for over five hours. In fact, they never even called 911; by the time Reaves received proper medical attention at the hospital, it was too late. She tragically passed away.<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood claims to deliver &#8220;care, no matter what.&#8221; That&#8217;s their motto.
