Plan B causes abortions? Really? So tell me, what happens when a woman who's ten weeks' pregnant takes Plan B?

Sorry AWMS, you are not correct. Plan B prevents fertilization and does not cause a spontaneous abortion. I understand this topic is, to say the least, controverisal...but please look at the published scientific data. Non-fertilization of an egg is not an abortion.

I'm sure most of us here are against abortion so I'm not trying to be contrary or hostile here.. So...respectfully, I'm simply trying to point out that Plan B is a great way to reduce the number of abortions performed in this country and should be viewed with open eyes.

I think you may be thinking of RU486, which may be the reason there is FDA hesitance on the Plan B... RU486 is dangerous to the "mom" as well as the obvious victim (the baby). Maybe the FDA doesn't want this one to backfire with "unintended consequences".
