Abortion is a means of terminating a pregnancy, which begins after implantation of the fertilized egg in the uterine wall. Emergency Contraception acts to prevent implantation and pregnancy. The attacks against Emergency Contraception are unwarranted and must be seen as part of an attempt to ban all family planning. Emergency Contraception acts before implantation and, accordingly, is unlike abortion. It is a part of women's reproductive health rights.
Reproductive rights are human rights.
