When a woman is pregnant, her body naturally prevents her from getting pregnant again because women's bodies are not equipped to support fetuses at different stages of development. Birth control pills take advantage of this natural phenomenon and work by fooling the body into thinking and acting as if it's already pregnant.



There are two basic kinds of hormonal birth control: (1) the combination pill which is made up of two synthetic hormones (estrogen and progestin) and (2) the progestin-only pill (sometimes called the minipill).




The synthetic estrogen in the combination pill works to prevent the ovaries from releasing an egg. If no egg is released, there is nothing to be fertilized by sperm and the woman cannot get pregnant. In addition, the synthetic estrogen works by suppressing the body's normal hormonal pattern (which involves one egg being developed per menstrual cycle and released for possible fertilization).

The synthetic progestin (present in both types of pills) works to:

thicken the cervical mucus which hinders the movement of sperm,
inhibit the egg's ability to travel through the fallopian tubes,
partially suppress the sperm's ability to unite with (and thereby fertilize) the egg, and
alter the uterine lining so (in the event that an egg is released and fertilized) the egg will likely not be able to implant into the uterine wall. (A fertilized egg would then be discharged with the rest of the menstrual blood.)

i am keeping up,if the woman is not pregnant, then there is nothing to abort.

plain and simple

so if you and hubby have some eggs fertilized in the clinic, and later they dump them as you decide not to become pregnant, have you had an abortion?

They don't want to hear fact, or proof, or gain any knowledge. They just want people to go "Pro-Choice, ooorahh, Women's reproductive right and damn anyone else ooooorahhh"

I'm pro-choice, I just prefer to make my decision based on knowledge instead of emotion.

There are many who are ignorant of the facts on both sides of the argument. Those who are pro-life because their pastor told them to be are just as ignorant as those who are pro-choice without knowing exactly what an abortion is.

Knowledge is power.

I disagree with your stance, but strongly agree with your method.

Don't sit here and preach morals. You are having unwed sex with someone who had a child out of wedlock. On top of all that, you post about the perverted crap you do. It's because of you that I rarely post in Into The Fire anymore. YOU have ruined that forum. There are a few people that have slacked on posting in there because of you. Good job.

You...Miss Catholic, who uses birth control and dates a young guy into sadism has the NERVE to preach about how bad Planned Parenthood is because one LAST option is abortion.

Meanwhile, he had a beautiful baby with a psycho chick. Beautiful baby girl and you two carry on in his "dungeon". I feel sorry for that baby and have absolutely NO respect for you.

"Oh...whips and chains...hurt me...OH GOD! It feels so good, but I can't foster the children who are born and not taken care of. Spank me harder, Chain!" (this is not an actual quote but how you come across)

Step up and foster a child, or step down and STFU.

I will listen to you when you actually take care of the progeny of the unplanned and unwanted pregnancies, straighten up, and stop being a friggin Catholic hypocrite.
How about y'all sit down, STFU, and leave the personal crap- especially me and my little girl- out of this? It's one thing to be too stupid to have an intellectual debate, but this kinda BS takes "trashy drama queen" to a whole new level.
