An expansive thread about abortifacient 'contraceptives,' and the dangers of Plan-B that medical professionals won't tell you.

Life begins at conception (fertilization), the process during which a male gamete, or sperm, unites with a female gamete, or oocyte, to form a specialized cell called a zygote.

A zygote is a distinct, whole human being.

A contraceptive:

contra - against
cept - conception

A contraceptive — when successful — prevents conception from happening and the unique zygote from forming.

In 1965, in hopes of selling more "contraceptive" drugs and to skirt FDA regulations — The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) — moved the pregnancy start date from conception, to implantation instead (6-12 days later)

This allowed drugs to be labeled "contraceptives," but rather than preventing conception, they prevented the zygote 'after conception' from implanting in her mother's uterus, effectively causing an early stage abortion.

Plan B's very own website says the product can work in a way that "prevents a fertilized egg from attaching to the uterus," ultimately starving, killing the developing prenatal human. (doesn't happen in every case)

Now I am not against birth control, we can have the debate on the morality of birth control all day, but I am against abortifacients.

It is vitally important for women to understand the drugs they are being prescribed and how they can potentially cause early abortions.

Women, please be aware of what you're putting in your bodies:
