A COUPLE OF OLD CONTRACEPTION POSTS

So here are my other contributions to the Pro-life, Pro-Contraception Blogswarm.

On the hot-button issue of the "morning-after" pill: Research on Emergency Contraception.

This other one also brings in my personal feelings about natural health, but it does talk about my support for the use of contraception: Political Correctness and the Pill.

I wrote another one that's even more of a natural-health, hormones-are-nasty type of post, but it did include a bit about ethical concerns surrounding the pill,  Here's an excerpt:

There is also controversy about whether BCPs and Depo act as an abortive, preventing implantation of a fertilized egg.  I'd have to say that based on my experience working in a gynecologist's office, my opinion is that hormonal contraceptives work much more to prevent ovulation, with the rate of miscarried pregnancies probably much lower than the naturally occurring rate.  When women are having very scanty periods or no periods, I don't think they're ovulating.
