    They don’t induce miscarriage. It prevents implantation of a fertilized egg within the first 48 hours after sex. I is technically not an abortion since it hasn’t implanted and isn’t growing. The Pro-life extremist shouldn’t be upset over it since that is better than a surgical abortion and safer in many respects and they are NOT killing a growing child since it can’t form is it doesn’t implant in the uterus.

      You’re confusing two different things. The morning-after pill works the way you describe. The combination of mifepristone and misoprostol does not — it can be used until 70 days after the last period.
