There’s a lot of evidence from ethical, well planned studies that Plan B does not prevent implantation and no evidence that it does.
http://lti-blog.blogspot.com/2006/12/plan-b-ec-no-morphological-changes.html discusses this article on biopsies of the uteri of women (who had had their tubes tied) after taking Plan B:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11747872?dopt=abstractplus
There were no measurable differences.
I still don’t prescribe Plan B because of the appearance of tolerating abortion (and I haven’t taken care of a rape victim since I learned this). However, the evidence is getting stronger each year that there is no interference with implantation.
IATZ.
Not your first liberal moment, once you end the definition of marriage, then what word shall we use when we mean marriage?
Do we just have to go through the twenty questions routine to find out if our niece married a man, or a woman, or three women, or two men and a Rottweiler, and so on.

Don’t be Fooled: Plan B One-Step Causes Abortion
by Katie Walker
Released July 30, 2009
Washington, D.C. (30 July 2009) - American Life League’s Marie Hahnenberg, director of The Pill Kills project, issued the following statement on Plan B One-Step, an abortifacient “emergency” contraceptive newly approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration:
“Planned Parenthood and the birth control industry would have you believe Plan B One-Step cannot cause an abortion. That is a lie.
“In 1965, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists issued a Terminology Bulletin that ‘officially’ changed the definition of ‘conception’ from the union of sperm and egg to implantation. As a result, the medical establishment does not call the killing of a human being prior to implantation an abortion. But that is just semantics.
“Plan B One-Step works like any other abortifacient drug: It can alter (thin) the lining (endometrium) of the mother’s uterus so that the newly-formed baby cannot implant and thus dies. Plan B One-Step’s product information itself states, ‘It may inhibit implantation (by altering the endometrium).’ Direct abortion is the willful ending of a preborn human being’s life. Plan B One-Step is thus a direct abortion method. Women should not allow themselves to be misled by sales representatives for Plan B and Plan B One-Step, who claim that these products will not terminate an existing pregnancy.
“Unfortunately, the birth control industry and Planned Parenthood – the nation’s largest abortion chain – have tricked many women into aborting their tiny children. Plan B One-Step, Plan B, the birth control pill, IUD and other hormonal birth control products can all cause abortions. Period.
“So, the next time you hear that Plan B or Plan B One-Step cannot cause an abortion, you will know the truth. Plan B products kill.”
Want to borrow my teeth? I'm not using them right now.
Yeah, that's what they all say.
Are you running for office or looking for a date?
OOOppps! The blade has already fallen.
I'm always late for the good ZOTS.

Uhhhh, oops!
Welcome to Free Republic.
That’s a very good first post, but a word to the wise... It’s always best when joining a new community to hang back and just listen and learn for a while before making a contribution to the group.
You’ve got to get a feel for the group you’ve joined, and unless you’ve spent a lot of time lurking on the site prior to joining, you don’t know if you’re violating established etiquette by posting right out of the gate.
The fact that you’ve asked for the definitions of the terms, “IBTZ” and “Vanity”, are obvious indications that you’re new here. Any lurker would have figured those out long ago.
Enjoy your stay. Hope you make it through the night.
148 Proof! This stuff would get you drunk, stoned and hungry with just a couple of shots. Oh, and it’s labeled as poison to keep Lloyd Brothers’ liability insurance rates down. It’s Saturday night, so name your poison and let’s all pound down an Overnight Open Thread.

Here’s the other link I was looking for:
http://jivinjehoshaphat.blogspot.com/2006/08/scientific-evidence-please.html
The articles are reports about scientific data, not redefinitions of words. Croxatto did serial blood work, ultrasounds (I’ve seen fertility docs use serial US to follow the oocyte as it matures, through ovulation and down the tube.) and then the biopsies. His experiments have been ethical since his volunteers had their tubes tied. Similar experiments in Cereus monkeys were carried out, by different investigators before the experiments in humans.
Plan B does not introduce as much hormones as the corpus luteum. The scar or lining from the follicle of the oocyte that is ovulated makes hormones to ready the woman for pregnancy and to maintain the pregnancy until the embryo can make the hormones after implantation. That hormone is progesterone.)
Think about the women who miscarry, over and over. Their problem is often low progesterone, the single ingredient in plan b.
The practitioners of Natural Family Planning know that the fertile period is over when the cervical mucus is thick. That’s due to a relatively high progesterone level and Plan B causes the same effect.
IATZ, but still a ZOT ping.
FReepmail me if you want on or off the list.
