So I am pro-life and usually my beliefs align pretty closely but then today I read something that I just couldn't get on board with. This woman stated that birth control is not in line with the pro-life movement. Birth control companies do admit that sometimes the egg does get fertilized but BC keeps you lining from thickening therefore reducing the risk of implantation. I understand that in about 50% of women they do actually still ovulate it just can't implant because of the BC. She even went as far to say that if you are taking BC for other issues, you don't need to be. That there are other ways to do it that won't just manage your condition, but actually help resolve it. Here's my thing, I had to take BC because my body wasn't ovulating after my reproductive system temporarily shut down. I tried managing without meds and it didn't work. Also, the point of the pro-life movement is supposed to be to raise awareness for unborn life and help women get contraceptives to help avoid unwanted pregnancy. By saying "hey, don't get pregnant and have an abortion because it's bad but also don't use birth control" basically ensures more women get pregnant. If you make pro-life women feel guilty like they are aborting a baby each month they take BC and they end up stopping taking it. Then what? They are left with condoms that are less reliable. Each month hundreds of women end up with eggs that get fertilized but don't implant for one reason or another while they are not using BC. Would you consider that abortion too? So what do you think? Is this pro-life article right?
