    I see it extends lifespan for people with certain cancers, and also in fruit flies (who wants their fruit flies to live longer, gross little things?). But just using it to terminate pregnancy would have a statistical effect on lifespan as well, considering the appalling rate of pregnancy- and childbirth- related deaths in the US. And I’m going to add in the fact that being pregnant increases the probability of being murdered by an abusive partner or parent.
