I have no idea where you're pulling this from, but every actual look-up-able source says that it's about 1 in 5 pregnancies for women 20-30, possibly as high as 40% in women over 40, with an overall estimated at 10-15% of all pregnancies.

Where you're getting "extraordinarily rare" from this, again, no idea.

Which is based off saying the majority of women miscarry without realizing it. The only large scale study put it at 13.5% overall and no study accounts for abortion drugs inciting miscarriages. If you want to believe March of Dimes, then 50% of women miscarry. What isn’t talked about is the amount of listed “miscarriages” that were caused by abortion drugs, which is listed as a miscarriage of the female doesn’t report taking them.

Even if this was 100% accurate, which I do not believe is so, as the commonality of miscarriages has been known long before pharmaceutical abortifactants were commonly available, that would still be north of 1 in 10, as a very generous low-ball. "Extraordinarily rare," really?

What's the point in all this, anyway? Miscarriages aren't rare, they are common, and this is universally known and supported by both low and high estimates. What is the point in pretending that this isn't so?

Again you’re making the conflation of abortion and miscarriage. Before abortion pills there were plenty of drugs and other methods to “induce” miscarriage and that’s all they were then. What you’re stating is a very long conflation of abortion and miscarriage. What is known is despite medical advances for some reason miscarriages are still high.

No, I am not, and I believe this is what you are doing, not me. "Miscarriage" has a technical definition, and that is: "A spontaneous, unplanned, loss of fetus before the 20th week of pregnancy." In all of the numbers I have referenced, this is the definition used. It is specific in that it says "unplanned," meaning, specifically, not an abortion and not due to the use of abortifacients.

Pregnancy is incredibly complicated, and involves a delicate hormonal, tissue, biochemical handshake between mother and fetus. It often goes wrong, without any purposeful action taken to make this so, and that can and does result in what people, including medical professionals, call a miscarriage. It is common, that is a fact, and that is the series of circumstances that make up all of my previously cited numbers.

You are applying conspiracy theory to the concept of miscarriage, especially with this "outside influences" talk. There is no effort to inflate miscarriage numbers in order to hide abortion numbers, or to obscure the use of abortifacients. Miscarriage is simply common.
