Abortifacient Effects of Birth Control Pills Pro-Life Video. Special thanks to and posted with permission from Michael Hitchborn of the American Life League (ALL). American Life League calls all pro-lifers across the country to speak out on Protest the Pill Day '08: The Pill Kills Babies, scheduled for the Griswold anniversary of Saturday, June 7. We encourage you to gather with your friends for peaceful protests in front of facilities that distribute birth control products. For insights on God's plan for sex and human dignity, read Pope John Paul II's LOVE & RESPONSIBILITY and THEOLOGY OF THE BODY. Artificial hormonal birth control works by introducing artificial estrogen and artificial progesterone (progestins), at 4 to 10 times the dosage naturally produced by the body. These dangerously high levels trick the brain into thinking that the person may be pregnant and cause ovulation to stop. The pill also prevents conception by thickening the cervical mucous so that the sperm can't reach the egg. If this doesn't work, the pill prevents the implantation of an already fertilized egg. This occurs when a new human person has already been conceived, but after the artificial hormones have thinned the uterus lining. So rather than sort of snuggling into a nice nourishing uterus to continue development, the uterus is hostile and the embryo is discarded. Most pills are combined hormonal pills with both artificial estrogen and artificial progesterone. The progesterone-only pills, however, don't prevent fertilization, but work primarily by thinning the uterus lining. Depo-provera, for example, is a progestin that is injected every three months and strips down the lining of the uterus. Similarly, the intra-uterine device (IUD) causes "inflammation and scarring of uterine lining," thereby preventing implantation. Barrier methods such as condoms, sterilization, diaphragm and spermicides work by aiming "to prevent a meeting of the sperm and the egg." Nevertheless, statistics published by Family Planning Perspectives note an extremely high percentage of "reproductive failures", i.e. pregnancy. The birth control pill has a 12.9% pregnancy rate; condoms have an incredibly high 23.1% pregnancy rate, diaphragm 20%, depo-provera 4.2% and spermicide 25%. Given on average the amount of months that a woman uses artificial birth control during her reproductive years, which is a majority in the reality of North America, there will be 1.8 'reproductive failures' per woman's reproductive life. According to previous studies, only about 50% of pregnancies in the US are intended. Among those that reported unintended pregnancies, 50% said they were using a form of artificial birth control properly at the time of the conception. So it's not like, 'Oh I was on the pill, but I missed it for a week' because that wouldn't be considered being on the pill. Finally, 50% of those "reproductive failures" end in abortion. If abortion is defined as "any interruption in the normal development of the embryo," methods that "prevent implantation" are abortive. Breakthrough ovulation rates (fertilization occurs, but implantation fails), for example, can happen in up to one third of cycles on the pill. In combined hormonal birth control pills, this occurs from 1.7% to 28.6% per cycle, whereas with progestin-only pills, fertilization rates are from 33% to 65% per cycle. These are relatively high rates, Kraw noted, considering that 80% of North American women have used a hormonal method for birth control by the time they finish their reproductive years. Tragically, after discontinuing birth control, women also experience high infertility rates. Fertility rates are 26% lower after using birth control, and 29% lower after using the IUD. In addition, even the so-called "low-dose" pills cause a 2 to 6 times increased risk of blood clots throughout the body. They started off using ten times the amount of estrogen, well, what happened? Women died in the first phase trial of these medications. The problem is that this is still occurring even as the dose of estrogen has lowered itself to only about 4 times with the low-dose pills.

    No I am not. This guy is being deceptive in the same way creationists are.

    This video is catholic propaganda.The birth control pill does not "kill babies" a zygote is not a fetus.

    An abortion is just the surgical removal of a fetus. You are the troll(starting arguments with people using deception or debunked bull).

  • @TheMrgoku1985 I never said a Zygote was a fetus... but you know what I think here? I think your trolling me, keep listening to Obama and Pelosi. You are going straightforward into a wall, your not even saying facts, you keep saying the same incorrect information and mistruths. Goodbye, Troll.

  • @deemax90

    Wrong a zygote is not a fetus did you not watch the video if you are comparing the 2 there is somthing wrong with you. watch?v=mjWwf1CvAkM

    You are being deceptive I am being straightforward no.t be butthurt becouse I call you and them out on there lies. I get my information from the gynecology department not Obama or Pelosi . Who gives a fuck about those 2 dumb asses. You and they are being deceptive just like creationst.

    This video is propaganda.

  • @TheMrgoku1985 You know what two can play at this game...

    ABORTION=THE TERMINATION OF A PREGNANCY

    the pill kills a human being because a zygote is alive.

    Nancy Pelosi lied to you, so did Obama. They are biased and deceptive, they don't give the whole truth, that's a form of lying.

    I did not lie, I based my answer on common sense and real scientific study.

    All of my sources are correct, including the dictionary.

    There is no debate here. You are just a brainwashed liberal.

  • @deemax90

    ABORTION=REMOVAL OF A FETUS

    the pill does not "kill babies" because it is not a fetus(abortion stage) a zygote is not a fetus.

    This man lied so did you. He is being deceptive this is a form of lieing.

    I did not lie I made a straightforward answer based on the gynecology departments statements.

    All of them state the point of abortion is fetal stage. and an abortion is a sergical procedure.

    There is no abortion debate here this video is catholic propaganda.

  • @TheMrgoku1985 You are being very dishonest.You refuse to explain what you mean, and you keep posting the same things over and over. I never said a fetus is a zygote, and I gave you the definition of an abortion, that being the termination of pregnancy.Please explain how this is Catholic propaganda?Like how you're a leftist propaganda machine, repeating their lies without coming to your own conclusion. Admit you can't go any further, because you have no idea what you're actually saying, right?

  • @deemax90

    Its not a lie I gave straightforward answers you are being dishonest like this guy

    Abortion=removal of fetus

    A fetus is not a zygote..

    This is catholic propaganda.

  • @TheMrgoku1985 There you go, spouting the same nonsense. Perhaps I wouldn't be so dismissive towards it if you just explained it and provided some evidence. You are not posting facts, you are posting the same lies over and over again, your position does not make sense. And how am I, or the fellow in the video lying? We are explaining our positions, currently your the only person I see that is lying.

  • @deemax90

    I dont have to there is no debate you where dishonest just like this guy.

    You used the same reworked dishonesty this guy uses that the creationist uses to "debunk" evolution.

    You are being willfully dishonest while I am being straightforward and posting facts.

    watch?v=mjWwf1CvAkM

    The birth control is not "killing babies". A zygote is not a fetus and abortion is the removal of a fetus.

    You are a sexist that wants law enforcement to treat it like crack.
