ultrasound of any lumps, lesions, breaks, polyp or cysts. Why should a 'foreign body' in our uterus be any different? I don't know a single person who has had a growth removed without seeing some sort of visual evidence of its presence beforehand. How is this seen as an invasion?

At the age of 16 I had and abortion. I am in my 40�s and to say that my soul still cries for what I did is putting it mildly. There are consequences to our actions and I know first hand what those consequences are. Wish I had had the guts to do what my heart was telling me instead of what those around me thought.
