Scientology is bad and should be stopped. I hope this video helps cultivate empathy among anyone who mocked victims and survivors of the cult.
Lonely people need their needs met too, and if your support systems exclude them, then they'll seek elsewhere.
We have a Mothers' Day and a Fathers' Day.
We need: Infertility Day, Childless by Choice Day, and Childless by Circumstance Day.
Ideally also: an Unplanned Parents' Day, Children's Day and Elderly Day.
Fuck it: Chosen Family Week for everyone!
If any of that seem like too much to you, please do consider why you consider DNA similarity more important than well-being.
IDK how people affected by it directly or indirectly would feel, but a miscarriage day might also help some people.

Apparently there is stigma about experiencing pregnancy loss.
Regardless of cause or intent, not just anti-medical abortion people but some people victim-blame anyone who goes through a spontaneous abortion, including people who wanted to be pregnant.
('Abortion' means to end something before the expected finish. Spontaneous means sudden. A spontaneous abortion is when your body ends a pregnancy without your input.)
Not all pregnancies are viable, not all pregnancies remain viable, and abortion is a human right for anyone who can become pregnant.
Children are a goddamn gift! Forcing someone to care for another human when they're not willing and ready is horrifically cruel to all involved.

Hell, the name 'miscarriage' itself is victim-blamey. To carry out a process or a sentence is to do something successfully or to completion. To miscarry is to 'fail' at doing that thing.
Consider the phrase 'cervical incompetence', when describing the cervix. The cervix is the... it's either the bit facing the vaj or the tube between the vagina (tube past the vulva lips) and the uterus ('womb' connecting the Fallopian tubes to the vagina).
Uhhhh, anyway, cervical incompetence is when that tube is weak or weakened and lets too much into or out of the uterus. I think it's a pregnancy (obstetrics) thing, but it might cover stuff like Pelvic Inflammatory Disease too.

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, or PID, can lead to infertility btw, if that's something important to you.
Sexually Transmitted Infections, or STIs, can malinger, so please test regularly for them (or whenever you remember) when you can.
Older term: STDs for Sexually Transmitted Diseases.
A disease is a collection of symptoms (maybe? Pls feel free to correct or add nuance) whereas an infection is a situation where harmful microorganisms reach a noticeable population inside a living creature.
The vagina is acidic to prevent harmful bacteria overgrowth or (any?) yeast or fungal growth.
The uterus isn't as acidic afaik, so it's more vulnerable to infections from any microorganisms that get that far.
Microorganisms are bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast, protozoa, and probably more because the tree of life is a fucking forest.

What Is USB Type-C And How Is It Different From USB Type-A and Type-B?
USB cables can be classified into USB Type A, USB Type B, USB Type C, USB Micro, USB Mini, and Lightning based on their physical design. Furthermore, USB connectors are divided into various versions based on their speeds, like USB 1.0, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, and USB 4.0.
