I believe that you are correct but I think the medical view is that it is not abortificant (haven't heard that word before) but rather that it somehow prevents the egg and sperm from bonding (for lack of a better term). Perhaps there is a period of time when the sperm and egg can "bond" after intercourse (like the 24 hour window within which you can take the pill)????
