For thousands of years, going back to the Bible, women have wept and grieved and pleaded to God over their miscarriages. Indeed, it took all these millennia for modern-day pharmaceutical companies to develop solutions to this ongoing nightmare.
In the 1940s, they were happy to offer doctors the ability to prescribe diethylstilbestrol (DES) to prevent miscarriage. “You can tell them you would give it to your wife,” the marketing mavens from Big Pharma suggested to physicians.
And with good reason.

I remember years ago, when I was of child bearing age, drs made you wait three months of missed periods before they would even test you for pregnancy. They knew a significant number would end within a few weeks. We always thought our periods were just 'late.' I think all these instant tests are a negative as much as a positive. But I also know I'd have been first in line for one back in the day. It was difficult to get pregnant for the much wanted second child. Took a year and a half. So I understand the feeling of wanting one and it seems like it will never happen.

Thalidomide was never approved by the FDA in the US to be prescribed for anything involving pregnancy. It was approved here for the treatment of cancer, TB, and leprosy but never anything to do with pregnancy.
Thalidomide was approved for use during pregnancy all over Europe but was never used for miscarriage as this not very well researched article implies. It was only prescribed as an antiemetic for morning sickness.
Frances Oldham Kelsey was the FDA scientist who absolutely refused to approve Thalidomide in the US as a morning sickness treatment. She was presented the President's Award for Distinguished Federal Civilian Service by President Kennedy and richly deserved it as the US's only thalidomide babies were from those mothers who had gotten the pills from other countries. The UK and Germany had thousands.

But yes also...
I had one delightful baby at 27 years old and went 16 years before our other magnificent blessing of boundless energy made her way to us. In the mean time, I was diagnosed with secondary infertility and had 2 very bad miscarriages, one late 1st trimester after a heartbeat had been detected and the second at 14.5 weeks. We had seen our sweet daughter sucking her thumb on the ultrasound. I have ultrasound pictures of both those babies. I cherish them. But God willing I will see them in Heaven so yes, miscarriage is a subject close to my heart and one I never shy away from talking about. Women and men need to know they are not alone and their pain and grief are real. I am so thankful my church friends who were pregnant during Covid did not get the vaccine. The science and the safety was simply not there.

Long article that is well worth the read. I am beyond glad that I skipped taking the clot shot. That said, I can't help but wonder if the MRNA shot is the reason why both Princess Catherine and King Charles both suddenly were diagnosed with cancer. I lost my own sister to the sudden resurgence of a very rare eye white cancer that had been in remission for more than ten years and spread all over her body. She lasted all of ten months after her diagnosis two months after her shot.
I, for one, will NEVER forgive anthony fauci, and I look forward to the day I can spit on his grave!!

Poster #2, thanks for posting the correct information. I came here to post the same as you did. Thalidomide was never approved by the FDA in the U.S.. I do remember reading about a woman who had taken the drug because her husband had been in Europe and brought it home for her. If I remember correctly, she went to Sweden and got an abortion. This was before we legalized killing babies.

One major correction in the Hormone Replacement Therapy section. The tablet of Premarin that also contained Provera, medroxyprogesterone acetate had the slight but statistically significant increased risk of breast cancer. A few years later when the Premarin only study (in women without a uterus) was published, the women on Premarin had fewer breast cancers. The WHI was conceived with a physiological and pharmacological knowledge present in the late 1980's. We now know that estrogen is involed in more than 3600 pathways used by the body to function. These pathways may be considered like "apps". These apps may no longer work "right" if not used for 10 or 20 years, which is what the WHI showed. An interesting thing is that Papadakis in Switzetland

...Switzerland in the OsteoLaus study showed women who are current users had less fat and lower BMI's than past users or never users.
Last year Hurtado from Mayo Clinic showed obese & overweight postmenopausal women on semaglutide AND hormone therapy had faster weight loss than women on semaglutide not taking hormone therapy. In women age 50-59 who had had a hysterectomy from 2003 to 2009 (after the WHI) Sarrel showed an estimated 18,100 to 91,600 excess deaths occurred in America from women stopping or never starting estrogen, "estrogen avoidance".
Yes, the state of medicine is not good. Health care has been centralized where the powerful can manipulate it.

#4, sorry for your loss. Dr. Fauci needs to be sued locally into poverty. Both he and his wife. Leave them penniless. He is beyond evil.
