The morning after pill I agree with as tenitive better option than abortion.
medicaly speaking only 1 in 4 fertilized eggs implant sucsesfully in the uterus (the strange facts you learn from your OB GYN!?).
The morning after pill was made with intent to prevent pregnancy/
Pregnancy is defined by a fertilized egg implanting itself in the lining of the uterus.
Before that while it is refered to as pregnancy it is a fertilized egg which techinly isnt yet pregnancy since as above mentions only 1 in 4 ever make it. 1 in 4 is a average mind you some women its higher some its lower all depends on the females body.
The morning after pill makes the chemical balance within the uterus umcompatable for implantation of an egg.
Techincly its not an abortion however some people may feel differantly depending on thier spiritual belifes and thier belives are as valid as any other but can not and should not be forced on people who dont hold the same spirital belifes.
As for the question does the morning after pill abort a fetus.
No at that stage in fetilization is not even an embreo yet in otherwords other than DNA it has no defining human qualities.
The pill CAN prevent ovualtion.
But this is the way nature works.
An egg is released now that egg is viable for 24 hours however sperm can live for 72 hours.
Interesting fact only the female cromsone sperm can live that long the males have about a 24 hour life span (more proof females rule!! )
Ok here is the math
Male and female have sex
Morning after female takes pill
ok that will prevent ferilization IF she hasnt already ovualted.
If she has then the pill prevents the implantation of a fertilized egg.
But females sexual desires are ruled in most part by nature and unmarried women are most likly to have sex within the 24 hour frame of ovualting.
I took this pill myself since my body rejects birth control pills this was a viable option for a woman who was involved but not married and recently suffered hemoraging that terminated my pregnancy 6 months into it and because of that my body desperatly needed healing for at least the doc said a year this pill is a more than viable option to prevent true abortion and unwanted children specialy for those who cant use conventional birth control.
Condoms are deadly to some people because of allergies and birth control pills cause a whole host of problems in women who smoke or have a family historys of high blood pressure , and it also conflicts with many phycotrophic drugs.
