Women should bury or burn their menstrual pads

Given the complete lack of scientific fact or logic in states like Texas or Indiana or possibly your state soon, I felt it was important to mention that as a counter-protest move in places like Texas, sexually active women should ask if they have to have a funeral every time they have their period.
Simple fact is that many, 50% by day 11 and 80% by day 12 by my research, of zygotes, though fertilized eggs, fail to take to the uterine wall for one reason or another and pass from the women's body in a menstrual cycle, likely without her actually knowing she was even pregnant. So to be safe women may need to hold a funeral a month or more or less depending on the women.

These type of laws and rules are ridiculous and batshst insane.

so they can determine whether or not a funeral is necessary and/or criminal charges for negligent homicide should be filed.

My guess is that law would be overturned in a week. A Virginia law proposed to declare miscarriage a reportable offense was withdrawn a day after I made the same suggestion in one of their papers.

while still in the stage of zygotes -- so the tissue would just look like a heavy period.

The OP isn't saying that half of menstrual periods result in pregnancies -- it's saying that half of pregnancies fail before a woman even knows she's pregnant.

The idea is for women to send their used menstrual products to Pence, asking if they need to be buried or not.

But it turns out that sending biological waste through the mail is a no-no.

Maybe women should just send photos of their used pads?

Hospital couldn't give precise date. Terrible experience in a Catholic hospital but even they didn't go that far. What do you want to name your child? Better be gender neutral because cannot determine gender at that point. Contact lense case as coffin? Burial place? In a potted plant at home?
