Considering I've been on about one Bonet thread, I thought it was your attempt to move me along since we don't agree about this topic.

I'll check in later.

Some information:
According to Barr Pharmaceuticals, Plan B works like other birth control pills, primarily by preventing ovulation. By stopping the egg from being released, the drug prevents pregnancy.

Unlike an abortion pill, the drug company says, Plan B does not work once a fertilized egg implants itself in the ovary and will not affect an embryo if a woman takes the pill during early pregnancy.

"Plan B works like other birth control pills, primarily by preventing ovulation."

Think about that statement. This is touted as the "morning-after pill."

A woman ovulates at certain times. (You knew that) A woman can only conceive during monthly ovulating days. The morning after pill can't stop something that already took place, ie, ovulation. The wording here is carefully twisted to say that it can't prevent pregnancy.

It says that it can't affect a pregnancy after a woman is pregnant. Their definition of pregnant is after the egg has implanted into the uterin wall and is growing. Our definition for pregnant is the instant the sperm enters the egg and splits. That's far before it starts down the path to their definition of pregnant. This pill stops that fertilized egg from implanting; hence their definition of being pregnant.
