I believe the point about the pill being an abortificent is that it is *possible* for an egg to become fertilized and then aborted before it has a chance to implant in the womb due to the pill. I believe Mary Bear provided you with documentation concerning this aspect of the pill.

And of course it's possible (and actually likely) that a fertilized egg won't adhere to the wall at all even without the pill. Again most of this stuff is working with old data when the pill was much stronger (I can't emphasis enough how much the pill has changed, the pill of the 60s was about many times stronger than it is today, the changes the pill made in the womans body back then actually had a good chance of permanently sterilizing a woman if she used it for more than a few years, now women are fertile while on the pill). Women get pregnant on the pill all the time now. As I said 3/5 of the womenin my age group that I know who've been pregnant were on the pill when it happened. What the pill does now is it sets 2 days a month when the woman is fertile, usually tuesday and wednesday of the brown pill week (sometimes monday and tuesday, tuesday is almost always a fertile day).
