Tomorrow, voters will decide whether to add a pro-life amendment to the Kansas constitution. In 2019, the Kansas Supreme Court struck down the state’s ban on dismemberment abortions. The dismemberment method, also known as “dilation & evacuation” or “D & E,” is used after the first trimester, when unborn babies are too large to kill […]
[Today’s guest article is by Elise Ketch.] A Finnish study published in 2017 found that women who have abortions as teens are more likely to die by suicide, compared to teen mothers who chose life. The study participants who received abortions were twice as likely to die by suicide than their peers who gave birth, […]

Kentucky Judge Mitch Perry temporarily enjoined the state’s pro-life laws, laughably claiming that recognition of human life in the womb is an establishment of religion. Ninety-five percent of biologists, including a strong majority of those who consider themselves pro-choice, acknowledge the scientific reality that human life begins at fertilization. Even the Justices who decided Roe […]
(Transcript below video.) [Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] Transcript: When pro-choice people conceptualize the embryo as a parasite, and pathologize pregnancy as our body’s failure to rid ourselves of a parasite, there’s another element of that discourse that I want to touch on.

Once in a while, I find myself agreeing with pro-choicers about something. Today is one of those days, thanks to an incredibly stupid incident from American University School of Law. It all started with the leak of the Dobbs opinion. Law students began discussing it in a group chat. American University was once ranked the […]
I am a practicing emergency physician in Texas. My primary practice location is in a high volume, urban, community ER attached to a hospital providing women’s services, i.e. obstetrics. 20-30% of my daily practice is acute-care obstetric triage and treatment prior to 20 weeks, as well as undifferentiated walk in patients beyond 20 weeks with […]
[Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] A few people asked us to respond to the “fetus is a parasite” TikTok. We posted some thoughts from Dr. Calum Miller here. I added to his points in this TikTok (transcript below video): Yeah this is not accurate in terms of biology. There’s a lot in it that’s […]

Why bother to protest strongly, which is a lot of trouble, as long as […]
The following post is recreated from a Twitter thread by Dr. Calum Miller. This viral video about fetuses being parasites is honestly the perfect example of what happens when you give a first year undergrad a small bit of technical knowledge and a camera. (I’m not saying she is a first year undergrad – just […]
