My friend told me that I shouldn’t take the “morning-after” pill because it will cause an abortion. How is something like this available without a prescription?

Take Action

Make Emergency Contraception Available for All Women

Tell HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius to follow the recommendations of scientific experts and make the "morning-after" pill available to all women.

Challenge Boehner

Help us keep anti-choice Speaker John Boehner in check: challenge him to no hearings, no markups, and no votes attacking abortion or birth control.

Whoa, hold up. Let's set a few things straight.

The "morning-after" pill is birth control that you can take after sex. It's also called emergency contraception (EC). It doesn't cause an abortion and it won't have any effect if you are already pregnant.

The FDA made it available for sale without a prescription after years of review. It is extremely safe and effective.

If you or any of your friends ever have a birth-control emergency, please consider EC. It's a second chance to prevent unintended pregnancy.
