Women Tell Supreme Court Abortion Pills are Dangerous: "I Was Shocked to See I Was Covered in Blood"
"I'm not the same person," a 19-year-old girl known only as #13 wanted the Supreme Court to know. "I regret my abortion so much. ... I think about it every day." Taking the abortion pill "was traumatizing," she says, thinking about the tiny little person she saw. "I just died a little bit. My boyfriend and I miss our baby. Woman describes 'nightmarish' abortion pill experience: 'No one had warned me'
In a recent op-ed on Fox News, one woman described her harrowing abortion pill experience, warning against the widespread push for easy chemical abortion access and describing her belief that the FDA has "betrayed" women in unraveling abortion pill safeguards. I Was Told Abortion Drugs Wouldn't Hurt Me. It Was a Lie
They just gave me a bag with the second drug I was supposed to take at home. There was no talk of a follow-up visit with the doctor - not even a phone appointment. After I was given the drugs, and they got my money, my case was closed. Popping Abortion Pills Is Way More Dangerous Than Big Pharma Wants Women To Know
Abortion pills are dangerous for women, contrary to what the government and Big Pharma say. Women Injured by the Abortion Pill are Flooding ERs, FDA Concealed the Risks
When the federal agency responsible for ensuring the safety of the food we eat, medication we take, and products we use decided to remove critical safeguards that it originally deemed necessary for abortion drugs, it knew there'd be a problem. By the FDA's own admission, its actions sent more women and girls to the emergency room. Yet the Food and Drug Administration recklessly plowed ahead anyway and disregarded the harms it would cause when it eliminated the few, crucial safety measures that had been in place for years.

The Abortion Pill is NOT Safer Than Viagra, Penicillin, or Tylenol. Here's the Facts
Every time abortion pills are back in the news, you can count on some hot shot reporter taking the bait offered by the abortion industry and repeating carefully crafted but factually suspect claims that 'mifepristone is safer than...' What it is allegedly safer than will include whatever popular, common drug that millions of Americans use every year without any significant concern for safety. A while ago, it was Tylenol. We will review that claim momentarily, but we and others have answered that here. More Headlines…

Ethical Perspectives on Birth Control Arthur Goldberg
A person's body and soul are not possessions to abuse, harm, or destroy. Leviticus 19:1 commands us to "be holy," a directive that carries strong ethical and moral implications for humanity as we strive to imitate God. By participating in hookup culture, we effectively defile the divine presence within us. Unmoored from a committed and loving marital relationship, sex, dating, and relationships are dramatically affected. An unchecked sex drive and unfettered access to abortion harm both the individual and the society in which he or she lives. Judie Brown
The Incredible Shrinking Woman was a 1981 movie about a housewife who grows smaller after being exposed to chemicals found in household products and cosmetics. It was a fictional comedy, but what is happening today as women ingest a different type of chemical is not fiction, and it is certainly not humorous. In truth, it is a panoply of drugs, devices, and surgeries scoffed up by women who have bought the reproductive rights lie.

Our bodies cause great inconvenience. Nothing about menstruation, ovulation, or having children is convenient, after all. But it's the way we were created, and there are better ways to respond to the sexual asymmetry of men and women. What are we losing out on if we suppress it? Nathaniel Peters
Chastity is a way of being more holistically directed toward our happiness regardless of the desires and attractions we experience. Louis T. March
First off, it's that time of year: 2023 population data are pouring in. A surfeit of statistics surfaces somewhere every week. Nirvana for demography nerds! Parsing numbers is boring, but some startling stats merit mention. South Korea, with the world's lowest fertility rate (0.78), broke its own record at 0.72. In Japan births fell 5.1 percent, marriages almost 6 percent. Seems Europe has more fifty-plus folks than preschoolers. John Stonestreet
Despite progressive states trying to ban APR, the treatment is proving to be safe for moms and lifesaving for babies. Shenan J. Boquet
New contraceptive options were supposed to bring huge improvements to "reproductive health." Their proponents looked forward to a day when STIs and accidental pregnancies were a thing of the past. It's time to admit that hormonal birth control and condoms aren't going to get us there.
Brian Clowes
Contraceptives are methods of birth control that place a physical barrier between sperm and egg, such as condoms and diaphragms. By contrast, abortifacients are hormonal-based methods of birth control that often cause early abortions. The principal method of abortifacient birth control is "the Pill," which first became widely used in the late 1960s and helped fuel the Sexual Revolution. John Stonestreet
This cultural moment considers limiting self-expression immoral, no matter how dangerous the diseases linked to that expression are.
Judie Brown
The phrase "Better Living through Chemistry" is a variant of a DuPont advertising slogan. And while the purpose of its products was to allegedly improve the lives of consumers, what is happening today with the manufacturers of mifepristone - the abortion pill - and other such chemicals is best described as better killing through chemistry. Devorah Goldman
My book is based on a series of dangerous ideas that have led us to where we are now. Beginning with the insidious theories of John Money, these ideas progressed through the fields of psychology and psychiatry and eventually infiltrated our educational and legal systems - corrupting many of the country's most powerful institutions." Shenan J. Boquet
For the first time ever, a contraceptive pill will be made available over-the-counter in the United States. As is typical, the many side effects of taking large doses of artificial hormones to suppress a woman's natural fertility are scarcely discussed in the reporting on the decision. When they are discussed, they are callously dismissed as simply an "acceptable" trade off.

The Church has always taught and continues to teach that the result of human procreation, from the first moment of its existence, must be guaranteed that unconditional respect which is morally due the human being.
