Okay, not entirely educated on female menstruation person here.

Does the period cycle change or is it consistent over time? Like is it about tracking a woman’s pattern and if there’s a change… that’s the flag?

It's about the cycle stopping and then starting again, suggesting that the person was pregnant until she wasn't again.

Exactly, and it’s not just about abortion. Well it is, but abortion isn’t the only cause. Miscarriages are common, and unfortunately these days miscarriages of fetuses and of justice go hand in hand.

Thank you, I’m proud of my turn of phrase and disappointed and enraged at my country

Here in Los Angeles there's been extra visitors from other states. Probably the y just want to go surfing, or visit Disneyland, I'm sure that's it.

To add what prune said, it can be some what inconsistent. Women aren’t robots.

My ex had periods that were frequently +- a week or so, and my current GF is regular enough to freak out over a couple days.

There’s also things that can cause skipped periods that have nothing to do with pregnancy- intensive physical training or stress.

Thanks for adding that. I was aware of those cases (also: the pill can make you stop having periods at all), hence why I wrote "suggested".

However, law enforcement can't be trusted to give you the benefit of the doubt. Especially, if it's illegal and persecution is especially politically motivated.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

yup.

I can only imagine what someone like my ex would have to worry about in those places. The idea that something- for her- is totally normal would see her facing charges for things that never happened anyhow. It's patent stupidity.

This kid is smart, and whoever coached her... good job.

Surely, surely law enforcement can't investigate you for missing a period?

It's not uncommon to choose to skip periods to keep iron levels up, et cetera.

In the states where an abortion is illegal with jail time as a repercussuon?

I'd never want to risk it.
