Your comment reads as if Israel continuing to starve Palestinians was absolutely unavoidable since 1947.

What do you mean “right now”? Do you know how long Israel has been an oppresive apartheid state for?

This comment is ironic because most of the time that music isn’t even written for you.

Nice tap dancing.

It is okay if there is a non teratogenic alternative that treats the targeted disease. Why risk teratogenicity when you can altogether avoid it?

Exactly. It’s not a “where do we draw the line” thing here, the line is already drawn as you allude to. It’s not just CT scans as well, some actual medications need pregnancy tests or at least active contraception use. Roaccutane, methotrexate and other DMARDs etc - everything in medicine is a risk vs reward thing and I’m sure many patient would prefer not to be on a drug that messes up their fetus whether they’re planning to keep it or not in the case they get pregnant. You’d rather just avoid the risk of that situation occuring altogether.

Yup. Common practive with anti-epileptics - some have worse implications for babies than others which is why those said others are used first.
