It Wouldn't be Like I Was Getting an Abortion, Right?
The fertilization of an egg can occur as early as 15 minutes after intercourse.10 This fertilized egg contains all 46 human chromosomes. These chromosomes are a complex genetic design for every detail of the prenatal human development. This genetic design includes hair, sex, eye color, skin tone and height. 11 “Nothing changes later except your location (in or outside the womb) and how big you are.” 12 If the Morning After Pill is taken after the egg is fertilized, it may not be able to implant due to the effects of the hormones which alter the lining of the uterine wall. Therefore, the human embryo may not be able to survive the harsh conditions. Under these circumstances, the Morning After Pill is “not a contraceptive, it’s a very, very early abortifacient drug.” 13 Emergency contraceptives never prevent STDs. The only real prevention (and protection) against STDs or pregnancy is abstinence. “Real prevention is something one does before the fact, not after the act.” NOTES: 10 D.C.R., "The Best kept (ugly little) Secret in America, " The Post-Abortion Review, September-December 1998, 3.
