Then why do doctors administer progestin to women in assisted reproduction?  Do your homework.

[Elelki]

SImplest question first: Conception CAN occur less than an hour after sex, if the woman has already ovulated. That's the Plan B failure rate. Plan B prevents ovulation. That's how it works.

@Elelki not necessarily. It does three things. it can stop the release of an egg. it can stop actual fertilization and it can stop the egg from implanting itself into the uterus wall

phew

LOL.

A "study" done by the people profiting from the pills! The tobacco industry was pretty good at that back in the day also.

"Further studies by researchers Pike and White noted that oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) with potent progestins carried higher risks for causing breast cancer than combination OCPs that contained less potent progestins."

It used to be true that religious wars killed the most people, but abortion and AIDS have taken over and now account for a number of dead exponentially higher. 26 million are dead from AIDS, 3500 a day from abortion in the USA alone.  If there's a religious war out there choking up those body counts now, I certainly haven't heard of it.

[YourHumanRights]

wow, you really are off in your own little world, aren't you? I suggest you look into how many priests were killed in concentration camps, for starters. You are correct that Mengele was raised Catholic, as was just about everyone born in Bavaria at that time. But he was excommunicated for being, among other things, an abortionist. You can't be Catholic and pro abortion. See: Immaculate CONCEPTION.

In another 7 year dog study, administration of levonorgestrel at 0.5 mg/kg/day did increase the number of mammary

adenomas in treated dogs compared to controls. There were no malignancies.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Carcinogenicity: There is no evidence of increased risk of cancer with short-term use of progestins. There was no increase in tumorgenicity following

administration of levonorgestrel to rats for 2 years at approximately 5 μg/day, to dogs for 7 years at up to 0.125 mg/kg/day, or to rhesus monkeys for

10 years at up to 250 μg/kg/day.
