Another Study Says Morning After Pill Does Not Reduce Abortions

Another study, by Morning After Pill supporters, concludes that the MAP does not reduce abortions.  Elizabeth G. Raymond, MD, MPH, James Trussell, PhD and Chelsea B. Polis, write in Obstetrics & Gynecology 2007;109:181-188
by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists



CONCLUSION: Increased access to emergency contraceptive pills enhances use but has not been shown to reduce unintended pregnancy rates. Further research is needed to explain this finding and to define the best ways to use emergency contraception to produce a public health benefit.



Don't expect this to stop abortion advocates from saying that if pro-lifers were really pro-life, they'd be joining them in passing out the morning after pill to stop abortion.
