Default Re: medicalisation. Does it have its place?

I think we have a thread on this somewhere... ie active management of third stage.... will look later on

Suffice to say so far I have not seen one, I have seen women talked out of it a few times though, and it is based on research that usggests that postpartum bleeding is reduced with its use, however Wickham disagrees saying the higher amount is normal physiology. Tbh though I have not looked into it yet, it would be a good essay subject and one I should've chosen really....

Anyone else know good stuff on it?
