Birth Control for Pro-Life Christians


What They Don't Tell You About Birth Control

 Many people are opposed to abortion, because they believe that life begins at conception. Generally, conception is understood as the moment when the sperm and ovum (egg) merge into a genetically complete individual. Fertilization and conception are the same thing.

These same people often encourage and support the use of artificial birth control. Some suspect Norplant and the IUD of causing abortions, but they rarely consider that oral contraceptives or the injectable Depo-Provera, the new patch, or the ring might cause abortions . . .


Changes in the Endometrium?

 Several quotes from various sources highlighting the abortion-causing method of hormonal contraceptives


But My Doctor Said...

 You heard that birth control pills might cause abortions, so you went to the most obvious source of good medical information, your doctor, and asked him or her to set the record straight.

Your doctor assured you that your method keeps the sperm and egg from ever meeting up, so it can't possibly cause abortions.

But, you've looked up your method on this site or elsewhere, and what you find seems to contradict what your doctor told you? Is someone lying to you? If so, who? Why would your doctor disagree with the prescribing information sheet the drug manufacturers provide with the birth control method?

If you can understand the analogy, it will help you understand the real issues.
