Ok, so science story time. I’m not a doctor.
The female human’s reproductive tract is somewhat loosey-goosey. There is a direct path between the outside world, through the vagina, through the cervix, through the uterus, through the fallopian tubes and into the female abdomen. Not literally, but figuratively the ovaries “float” in the abdomen, just outside of the entrance to the fallopian tubes.
While discussing this with a doctor once, I asked, “Since the ovaries are not directly connected to the fallopian tubes, when an egg erupts from an ovary, what insures that the egg enters the fallopian tubes and heads to the uterus?”
She replied, “Not much. Occasionally the egg will stay in the abdominal cavity and implant there.”
So think about that for a second. It’s not uncommon for a human eggs to float into the female abdomen, attach and begin growing. That’s called an “ectopic pregnancy”. If you know enough women who trust you, you’ll likely know at least one who’s had surgery for an ectopic pregnancy.
So think about that for another second. If you know someone who is against abortions, be sure to ask them how they suggest solving ectopic pregnancies.
If they don’t have an answer, consider what it would be like to die from one.
Wow, you learn something every day. I had no idea sperm could leave the fallopian tube and just start spinning around in the abdominal cavity. That's scary.
