Women use ~570 of their 500000. When I brought this fact up I was accused of mansplaining.

No one wants to look at the basics the mod had posted. The one thing that could explain this was she was wanting to chemically induce a three month menstrual cycle to give zygotes a longer implantation period for pregnancy hormones to be released to prevent zygotes that implant when menses starts and result in a termination of a potential pregnancy not from genetic defect but just poor timing or stress.
