[quote=Anonymous]I am very much in favor of the right to same sex marriage. However, I’m absolutely furious that Congress took action to protect it from *potential* threats as a result of the Dobbs decision, meanwhile, abortion rights are increasingly restricted, access to abortions is increasingly limited, women and girls are being harmed, and now fertility treatments are being curtailed. Issues that disproportionately affect women just don’t have the same urgency.

The ignorant judge who thinks people undergoing IVF can just make a single embryo at a time has absolutely no idea what is involved. To undergo IVF, most male patients typically only have to jerk off. The female patient has to have invasive testing done, undergo frequent blood draws and vaginal ultrasounds, inject multiple drugs into her body (dozens of injections per cycle), have eggs surgically removed from her body, then have an embryo (or multiple embryos) transferred back into her body, then continue hormonal injections. The woman may gain weight, tge veins in her arms may become compromised due to such frequent blood draws, she might suffer from over stimulation of her ovaries, she risks possible future cancer from the drugs used, she could end up with an ectopic pregnancy, and if she successfully conceives, she then potentially faces the myriad complications that can arise in pregnancy, possibly while having restricted access to abortion, even when medically necessary.

It's a travesty for judges and legislators to regulate medical procedures without having any clue what the consequences of their regulations will be.[/quote]
