"Reproductive coercion can be even more extreme than directives and shirking condom use. Dr. Krajewski has seen women who have had their IUDs pulled out by abusive partners, and on Bedsider Dr. Grace Shih writes about a patient whose boyfriend would physically rip her birth control patch off her arm. To curtail abuse by birth control sabotage, Planned Parenthood recommends "incorporating healthy relationship curricula into schools to increase the likelihood of healthy relationships into adulthood," and screening for reproductive coercion during gynecologist visits."
