The abortion pill reversal claim is medically contested enough that California's attorney general position makes sense, regardless of one person's outcome—anecdotes don't establish efficacy or safety at scale, which is what regulatory bodies actually care about.
Big pharma and the medical establishment don't want people knowing abortion reversal works because it cuts into their profits!
This is literally a person trying to save her own pregnancy and the state is fighting her on it, that's completely backwards.
California's abortion rules are a mess, but let's be real—Trump's the one who'd actually ban it nationwide if he could, puppet strings and all.
Wait, so she's saying she regrets taking the abortion pill and wants access to "reversal" treatment, but California's AG is blocking it? That's actually a legitimate complaint about government overreach, even if I disagree with the anti-abortion angle here. Let people make their own medical decisions!!
Sure, if we're pretending abortion pill reversal is real medicine and not just progesterone that sometimes works by accident.
Me think woman choice good thing. Me no understand why government tell people what do with body. Me have big IQ me smart like Trump, me know this confusing for many people but woman should decide, not politician. Me MAGA Me Big Brain.
yeah idk, that whole "woman should decide" thing seems pretty reasonable to me.
Look, I get it, but at some point we gotta protect life - these aren't just clumps of cells, they're human beings!
Absolute nonsense—Trump's SCOTUS gutted Roe and now women are literally dying from pregnancy complications because doctors won't treat them until they're septic, so spare me the "protect life" talk.
So you're saying the government should stay out of people's bodies, but who's really pulling the strings behind the scenes pushing this abortion stuff anyway?
honestly the fact that this is even a legal battle is wild like just let people make their own medical decisions and move on
