So most eggs are unfertilized embryos, which in mammals is what happens during menstruation. That said, it's not even a stretch at this point to think that conservatives might start saying that menstruation is immoral or whatever for this same reason.

Menstruation is not the result of an unfertilized egg though. It's there to waste potentially unhealthy embryo's and make conception less likely to succeed. The egg is gone before menstuation occurs.

Ah, so it is murder, according to Alabama law...

Fair enough. They clearly don't care about women risking their lives to deliver a stillborn anyway!

unfertilized embryos

What are you talking about? "Unfertilised embryo" is an oxymoron. An unfertilised egg isn't an embryo

Embryo (noun)

an unborn or unhatched offspring in the process of development, in particular a human offspring during the period from approximately the second to the eighth week after fertilization (after which it is usually termed a fetus).

But I agree with the fact conservatives really do not care and would ban menstruation if possible.
