UK abortion giant, British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS), has praised Dr Fox online pharmacy for slashing the price of the morning after pill to £3 ahead of the Christmas party season and encouraging women to ‘stock up.’ SPUC’s Director of Research, Dr Anthony McCarthy said: “It should worry us that Dr Fox is being praised by the abortion industry for pushing cut-price drugs.”
The price slash which has arrived just ahead of the Christmas party season and which could encourage women to engage more in “risky” sexual activity, has been applauded by BPAS representative, Clare Murphy. Murphy states that the drug is “extremely safe” and that it can be used “as often as needed”.
The morning after pill is typically purchased at a price of £26 and dispensed following a consultation with a pharmacist. BPAS is calling for the drug to be sold in “supermarkets and vending machines, like condoms.” Dr Fox ships the drugs for a “standby” supply at home after the woman has filled out an online questionnaire. Dangers of the drug
SPUC Director of Campaigns, Antonia Tully, said: "The sweeping claim by Clare Murphy of BPAS that the morning after pill is “extremely” safe is misleading. Levonorgestral, the generic name of the drug, is a powerful hormonal drug; powerful enough, according to medical literature, to be able to alter the lining of the womb to prevent implantation if conception occurs. This drug may cause a very early abortion: a new human life may be lost.
“Furthermore, medical information states that it should not be taken repeatedly. Encouraging women to stockpile the morning after pill could put their health at risk.”
The morning after pill can act as a form of early abortion by making the lining of the womb hostile to newly conceived human embryos and killing them. Women are often not informed that the morning after pill is a potential abortifacient.
A survey showed that in 2010, approximately six out of 10 British women had used the drug. A review of 23 studies on the use of the morning after pill concluded that “no study has shown that increased access to this method reduces unintended pregnancy or abortion rates.”
A 2015 study also suggests that access to the morning-after pill can also lead to higher rates of sexually transmitted infection.
Are they still giving free ultrasounds on slaughter your daughter days?
All abortion clinics do ultrasounds they just don’t let the women see it, that would cause the women to change their minds.
Its subsidized by taxpayers so its already largely paid for.
It’s no less than chemical warfare against women and children.
What a sick and twisted bunch are the left, and how lost are so many others.
So, celebrate the birth of Christ by partying, having sex, then getting a discount on pills to induce the sweeping of your system and possibly ridding yourself of a child.
This is blasphemy.
This makes no sense, as a drug that would prevent pregnancy if used the day after having unprotected sex would cut massively into abortion industry profits. Unless the drug is not as effective as advertised?
Also, I have strong reservations about the use of this drug. It was FDA approved for one-time emergency use, but the move to make it available OTC just about guarantees that it will be used in a manner inconsistent with the terms of its approval. No doubt, some women choose to forego the use of contraceptives in favor of using this drug in what they believe is an “as needed” basis. But what are the long-term effects of frequent use? Could the frequent disruptions to the uterine lining result in damage to the point where pregnancy becomes impossible? (This is a fairly common consequence to abortion, especially repeat abortions). Could the massive influx of hormones on a frequent basis promote the development of hormone dependent cancers, notably breast and ovarian cancer?
There are still too many unknowns to glibly tell women to go ahead and stock up for the holidays. Any physician who does so is irresponsible.
And women who engage in unprotected promiscuity these days are at risk for a lot more than pregnancy.
Yes, quite true.
I noticed that bit of hypocrisy coming from Planned Parenthood back in the 1970s. They had sent a representative to my high school biology class, presumably to teach sex education, but in reality to give an hour-long advertising spiel. While they gave lip service to teaching about contraceptives, they were in reality discouraging their use and encouraging promiscuous sex. Although they mentioned STDs, they didn’t seem too concerned about preventing them. Big abortion profit is too important to let women’s health get in the way.
