Pre-Marital Affairs, Illegal Abortions & Women’s Health in Pakistan | ft. Dr Samina Haq

Pre-marital affairs and illegal abortions are rarely discussed openly in Pakistan, yet they are deeply affecting women’s physical health, mental health, families, and the healthcare system. In this powerful and unfiltered episode of the Sarah Ahmad Podcast, I sit down with Dr Samina Haq, Consultant Gynecologist & Obstetrician, to explore the medical, ethical, psychological, and social realities behind these sensitive issues. This conversation also addresses one of the most controversial questions in maternal care: Are gynecologists unfairly blamed for C-sections, complications, and childbirth outcomes? Drawing from decades of clinical experience in both public and private hospitals, Dr Samina Haq shares what truly happens inside labour rooms — from life-saving decisions to the silent trauma faced by women and doctors alike.
