Disagreeing with you does not make us uneducated or triggered.
It's not me you're disagreeing with here. That term has a meaning that is defined, not by individuals on C-D, but by the medical and science organizations.
You call it monstrous behavior, yet every state in this country has allowed it in some form since the 1970s. Now all of a sudden it's monstrous behavior?
It's always been monstrous. Throughout history, people have engaged in activities that were later deemed barbaric as humankind become more civilized. Ripping a baby from a mothers womb is now, has always been, and always will be barbaric and monstrous, regardless of public opinion. I suppose slavery is OK because it was embraced in the past? The Holocaust? The Crusades? I'm sure you can think of other examples of things that were at one time considered acceptable, but aren't any longer.
Women have reproductive organs. We go to a GYN doctors for 40 plus years to care for our reproductive health. Abortion come under that umbrella like it or not.
Only the 6th post and you came up with what I was thinking. It does but it also has to do with having a safe pregnancy that won't kill her as well as getting a safe abortion.

The same medical and scientific communities that change definitions to suit a particular political ideology?
Abortion is not reproductive health - except in the case of ectopic pregnancies or non viable pregnancies or in the exceedingly rare case that pregnancy threatens a woman’s life.
A baby is not a disease that needs to be cured.
At least let’s call a spade a spade - elective abortion has nothing to do with reproductive health.

Well, that shipped sailed in the 70s ...
If a woman tries a DIY, or seeks the help of a person who doesn't know what they are doing ... she risks, not being able to conceive again. Thus, 'woman's reproductive health'. However, even a professional doctor (I guess there are ways around the Hippocratic oath) can screw up and in the end leave the woman sterile. Then there are times, that's not a screw up.

Well stated! A woman has the choice of what to do with her body before engaging in sex. Once there are two bodies involved via a pregnancy she does not.
You had say you could of used bc yourself instead of relying on someone else to use it.
Did, dumped that liar. Thanks for the education. I was 17 at the time. Could have used that bit of wisdom back then. Didn't think girls would lie about being on BC.
It defines what type of medical professional a person will see. For instance, someone wouldn't go to a cardiothoracic center for a nephrology issue.
It's a well-known and broad categorization, used for decades, to identify which bodily systems are included under that umbrella term.
If abortion falls under the umbrella of reproductive healthcare because it involves removing a fetus from a uterus which is part of the reproductive system, than abortion can also fall under the umbrella of murder or homicide since it is the intentional end to life.
