People of all political views are for Planned Parenthood and pro-choice so you cannot not just go by political views. Planned Parenthood is the #1 provider of birth control and health information for women preventing more abortions than any other organization. If Planned Parenthood were to go away abortions would increase.

They are proud they help women meet their own needs in family planning and good health. American women have a legal rights over their own bodies, just as American men do.

RU-486 - Mifeprex (The Abortion Pill)

Mifeprex blocks the action of the hormone progesterone, which is needed to maintain the lining of the uterus and provides oxygen and nutrients for the embryo.Without it, the embryo dies. Mifeprex is used in conjunction with the drug Cytotec (misoprostol) which is taken two days after Mifeprex, causing the uterus to contract and empty. The pregnant woman first visits the abortionist

to obtain the Mifeprex pills, returns two days later to receive misoprostol, and a third time to verify that the abortion is complete.

Vacuum Aspiration

In this first trimester procedure, the doctor numbs the cervix and slowly dilate it to the size of a straw and then gently suck the embryo out. The noise of the machine makes it sound rough but no one can roughly suck anything out of a uterus without hurting the woman.

Dilation and Suction Curettage (D&C) can be done if the uterus failed to expell the embryo.

This is similar to the vacuum aspiration but a curette is used to scrape the walls of the uterus.

How does Birthright compare with Planned Parenthood?

Basically, Planned Parenthood provides abortions and birth control as well as serving as a general women's health clinic, while Birthright doesn't provide abortions or birth control, and has a focus of promoting alternatives to abortion

Planned Parenthood is involved in lobbying for birth control, abortion rights, and health care funding, while Birthright and other centers don't do much of that.

In terms of funding, I'm not sure, but I think Birthright is funded entirely by donations, while Planned Parenthood is funded mainly by donations, but about 1/3 of their funding comes from federal grants.

I think that answers most of your questions
