At Your Cervix

In conjunction with National Women’s Health Month (May) the award-winning documentary, At Your Cervix will be screening online for one week only: May 26 - June 2.

At Your Cervix follows sexuality educator, activist and filmmaker A'magine Nation on her journey to expose the hidden practice of medical students learning to perform pelvic exams on anesthetized patients without their consent. This practice has been rightfully called "medical sexual assault." The film features interviews with students, patients, doctors, midwives, politicians and advocates offering compelling and often deeply emotional testimony as to why this practice must end.

In this political time, when women’s health concerns are being sidelined, and even erased, films like At Your Cervix are critical. Eighty-four percent of medical students have done non-consensual exams on patients under anesthesia, most of whom do not know about it. Black patients are four times more likely to experience a non-consensual intimate exam. At Your Cervix exposes this practice, and the systemic issues that have made it proliferate since the dawn of gynecology. 

At Your Cervix is a must-see film that will leave viewers with a deeper understanding of the importance of consent in healthcare, not only for patients, but also for students of medicine. Join the movement to end non-consensual pelvic exams and watch At Your Cervix May 26 - June 2.

Our panelists share how we got here, what we can do and are doing legislatively, what our legal rights are, and talk about the larger issue of the culture within patient-provider relationships and the system of medicine that has allowed MSA to go on unmitigated for so long.
