I hear all the time about some young girl getting pregnant and not knowing what to do. Do you think that they are against taking the morning after pill and just dealing with the impending pregnancy or do you think that they just don’t know about it.
I mean this would solve a lot of unwanted pregnancies. You can still live your life, finish school, and get a good job. You don’t have to have an abortion if that’s what you believe in. You don’t have to carry a child to term just to give it up to someone else. All of which are very emotional. Why not take a morning after pill instead? It’s just like doubling up on the birth control pill.
Now I’m not saying now everyone can have unprotected sex, but for those who say, their protection fails, for example.
Here is some information about it from Planned Parenthood.
Emergency Contraception
Emergency contraception (EC) is a safe and effective means of preventing pregnancy after unprotected intercourse. EC, also known as emergency birth control, has been available for more than 30 years. It contains hormones found in birth control pills and must be started within 120 hours after unprotected intercourse.
EC should be in every woman’s medicine cabinet. It is an important tool for women to prevent unintended pregnancy and the need for abortion. EC was responsible for approximately 43 percent of the decrease in the number of abortions from 1994 to 2000. If more widely available, EC could prevent 1.7 million unintended pregnancies and 800,000 abortions each year in the United States alone. You may want EC if
The condom broke or slipped off, and he ejaculated inside your vagina.
You forgot to take your birth control pills, insert your ring, or apply your patch.
