Treating an ectopic pregnancy is a life of the mother situation which is always allowed.
A miscarriage is not an abortion. It’s a death from a medical problem. Not every miscarriage will need to be investigated. It’s just like how parents of a newborn with a death suspected to be SIDS are not going to be investigated unless there is evidence of foul play. Even if someone does end up investigating an actual miscarriage, it’s always better to investigate an accident than risk letting a killer get away.
Abortion in the case of fetal anomaly is discrimination. Not only is it ableist, but it’s also completely unnecessary. Many prenatal tests can generate false positives. Parents have refused to kill an unborn baby and later discovered that there was a misdiagnosis.
Even if the diagnosis is correct AND the defect is truly lethal, carrying to term can save lives because of organ donation. For example, baby Eva was diagnosed with anencephaly(no brain) and died shortly after birth, but her organs were donated. If she had been aborted, those life-saving organs would have been tossed into a dumpster after being torn apart.
If the baby is actually dead before birth, removal of a dead baby is not considered abortion.
Again, life of the mother exceptions are completely allowed. In many cases abortion also wouldn’t save the patient. In fact, abortion causes sepsis, internal bleeding and more.
Many of the mothers also die. Common causes of death for the mothers include but are not limited to septic infections, internal hemorrhage and organ perforation. The women killed by abortion would still be alive if they had not had one.

In many cases, LEGAL abortion clinics have been caught covering up deaths of patients, child abuse, human trafficking and even enabled disturbing abuse of cult victims.

There’s also an increased risk of depression, PTSD and suicide. Abortion kills women. It’s more dangerous than birth.

If you really want to save women, the best thing we can do is ban abortion. Birth is safer than abortion for both the mother and the unborn human. Banning abortion actually decreases maternal mortality rates. Some PC activists bring up the USA’s relatively bad maternal mortality rates, but those people either don’t know or don’t want to mention the fact that the USA actually has some of the most lax abortion laws in the world. The USA is one of only 7 countries in the world that allow abortion on demand after 21 weeks in part or all of the country. If you take a better look at maternal mortality rates and abortion laws, a pattern emerges, but it’s not one that pro-choicers like. A study done in Denmark showed a significantly higher risk of death in mothers who got an abortion than mothers who gave birth. https://aaplog.org/abortion-and-subsequent-maternal-death-rates-first-new-study-from-denmark/ A study in Finland showed the same pattern. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14981384/ (Both Denmark and Finland require comprehensive reporting of all maternal deaths. The USA doesn’t even require abortion deaths to be reported in many states.)
Maternal mortality rates also show a pattern of being higher in countries that allow abortion. The African nation with the lowest maternal mortality rate is Mauritius, a country with some of the continent’s most protective laws for the unborn. Ethiopia’s maternal death rate is 48 times higher than in Mauritius and abortion is legal in Ethiopia.
Chile, with constitutional protections for unborn humans, outranks all other South American countries as the safest place to give birth. The country with the highest maternal mortality is Guyana, with a rate 30 times higher than in Chile. Abortion is legal on demand in Guyana at any time in pregnancy. Argentina used to ban abortion, but after it was legalized women started dying. https://www.ncregister.com/news/young-woman-dies-after-getting-legal-abortion-in-argentina
Asia: Nepal, where there is no restriction on the procedure, has one of the world’s highest maternal mortality rates. The lowest in the region is Sri Lanka, with a rate fourteen times lower than that of Nepal. Sri Lanka has very good restrictions on abortion. Ireland and Poland had phenomenal rates of maternal mortality when abortion was fully illegal except for life of the mother cases in both countries. Ireland had 1 maternal death per 100000 live births and Poland still has 8 out of 100000. After abortion was legalized in Ireland, the maternal mortality rates started to climb. https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/
We don’t need abortion. The only reason anyone actually would is the rare life of the mother exceptions and all PL laws allow those. I can also avoid any and all potential complications by simply avoiding getting pregnant in the first place. We don’t need to kill other humans for own convenience.
Eventually medical technology will make all life of the mother exceptions obsolete. But until then, the law allows those exceptions.
There is no such thing as a safe abortion. Something that is only a success if at least 1 human dies can’t possibly be safe.
Abortion is also more dangerous for the mother. Common causes of death for the mothers include but are not limited to septic infections, internal hemorrhage and organ perforation.

Here’s the case of a PC activist who died from a LEGAL abortion right after it was legalized in her area.
https://www.ncregister.com/news/young-woman-dies-after-getting-legal-abortion-in-argentina
Legalizing abortion leads to worse maternal mortality rates. PL countries generally have much lower maternal mortality rates than PC ones. There have been multiple cases of maternal mortality rates rising after abortion is legalized in that country.
Easy access to abortion pills enabled many abusers who attempted to spike a pregnant partner’s drink with a pill FROM THESE ILLEGAL SOURCES because the partner wanted to keep the baby and the abuser did not.

Legal abortion still has heavy risks of fatality. Common causes of death for the mothers include but are not limited to septic infections, internal hemorrhage and organ perforation.

And Pro-Lifers are not the reason that illegal abortions happen. Pro-choice drug dealers are known to mail pills to places where abortion is illegal. Since the pills are inherently dangerous whether they are legal or not, these PC drug dealers contribute to countless deaths. They have also enabled many abusers who attempted to spike a pregnant partner’s drink with a pill FROM THESE ILLEGAL SOURCES because the partner wanted to keep the baby and the abuser did not.

If PCers don’t like illegal abortion, they shouldn’t provide them.
But it’s not the fault of PLers that some people decide to go out of their way to illegally kill humans. Imagine that someone thinks illegal street racing is fun and holds street races where it’s illegal. That reckless driver runs over and kills a pedestrian who did not break any laws at any point in time. It would be ridiculous to blame the pedestrian’s death on the people who made street racing illegal. The driver who consciously broke the law is responsible for the death. Now imagine that the same driver broke their arm in the crash when they hit the pedestrian. In the same way, the injury is the fault of the criminal. PLers are not responsible for a criminal who injured herself in an attempt to break the law. She can avoid dying from an illegal abortion by simply not breaking the law. It is that simple.
