IUD as emergency contraceptive Post

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

Maybe you saw this short article in the Washington Post about how effective

IUD's are as " emergency contraceptives " up to 5 days after sexual relations- 999

out of 1,000. This leads me to think that theie abortifacient potential must be

very great, even if the abortifacient effect is not always the primary one.

Does anyone know?

My guess is that the HHS Mandate may b every profitable for the providers in the

short run if they are supplying $500 IUD's for " free " instead of packs of

relatively inexpensive morning after pills. The anti-life effects are tragic

either way but if IUD's are pushed women will suffer greatly in the long run

from unwanted infertility. Doctors, rather than women, are gaining all the

control here.

If the IUD is inserted after conception, the embryo either will not implant, or will not implant properly, or if already implanted,  growth will be stopped because the IUD will  disrupt the ovisac.  You cannot extrapolate  an abortifacient potential for preconceptional use from this information, as you have no information about how often an iud prevents conception.  Moreover,  the old plastic IUD’s did not always prevent implantation.  Many babies were born with Lippes loops in the secundines.

I just responded on-line: One of my friend's daughter did have an IUD; she

became pregnant and delivered her baby prematurely. This baby is now in the

hospital again, two months after birth, because his lungs were not working

properly. This little baby has been fighting for his life, and it's all because

of the IUD placed in his mother's womb. The parents love their baby, and wished

that they child didn't have to suffer because of their decision to use the IUD.

The IUD may not prevent ovulation that may lead to conception; it most often

works by preventing a young human life from implanting on his or her mother's

womb. But there are miracle babies, like this young baby.
