Abortion activists have repeatedly claimed that abortion pills are safer than Tylenol. As far as I can tell, by that they mean that annually there are more ER visits related to Tylenol (acetaminophen toxicity) than to abortion pills. If more people each year are going to the ER because of Tylenol than because of abortion […]
Photo Credit danilo.alvesd on Unsplash Earlier in 2023, the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, other pro-life medical organizations, and individual pro-life physicians filed a federal district court in Dallas, against the FDA concerning their regulations on dispensing mifepristone. This drug is the first of two used in the abortion pill sequence, blocking the pregnancy hormone progesterone […]

British outlets are extensively covering the case of Carla Foster, a woman sentenced to jail for illegally using abortion pills to abort her 32-34 week daughter. [Read more – Abortion provider sends woman abortion pills not realizing she’s 32-34 weeks pregnant] One pro-choice interviewer, Julia Hartley-Brewer, talked about the case with pro-abortion campaigner Janey Starling […]
The BBC published “Mother jailed for taking abortion pills after legal limit,” neglecting to mention in the title just how far past the legal limit the mother was. In the UK it’s legal to induce an abortion at home via pills up to 10 weeks gestation, get an elective abortion in a clinic up to […]
If you’ve ever heard of abortion pill reversal at all, you’ve probably heard dichotomous views on its safety, efficacy, and basis in science. Planned Parenthood, NPR, and ANSIRH all caution on how reversing a medical abortion may not be possible, may not be scientifically supported, and may not be supported by rigorous medical studies. On the other side, you […]
[Post-publication update, 4/23/23 – (1) I clarified the results of the 2018 Delgado study. Previously I had stated the study found up to 68% success rate for APR. The average rate was 48%, with different methods of progesterone administration having different success rates up to 68%. (2) I added a note about method limitations in […]
So much for “choice.” Pro-abortion legislators in Colorado have introduced SB23-190 which, if enacted, would subject doctors to professional discipline “if the health-care provider provides, prescribes, administers, or attempts medication abortion reversal.” I think pro-life advocates made a strategic mistake when they introduced “abortion pill reversal” (APR) as an amazing new technology. It is certainly […]

The company wrote that it intends to comply “with all applicable laws and as a result would not be able to dispense Mifepristone in all locations.” The twenty states where Walgreens will […]
When the pro-abortion Biden FDA announced that it will loosen safety regulations so abortion drugs can be sold in retail pharmacies, Walgreens and CVS immediately said they would sign up for the deadly program. It is distressingly clear that these companies care more about their profits than about the lives of helpless babies in the […]
