Get your contraception house in order - this is a war

Ya'll, I just made a (slightly) panicked appt with my gyn to get my IUD replaced. Now that Roe v Wade isn't there to protect us, we need to protect ourselves. I am privileged AF in the sense that I have access to good insurance despite being in the U.S. That said, there are resources out there: Online pharmacies can provide deeply discounted, convenient birth control and emergency contraception. Here are some I've come across previously (obviously not an all-inclusive list): https://heyfavor.com https://afterpill.com https://www.nurx.com/birthcontrol/ Even Amazon sells generic Plan B (Levonorgestrel) for a fraction of the cost. Places like these offer access to discounted emergency contraception: https://www.singlecare.com/prescription/plan-b-one-step

https://www.goodrx.com/plan-b-one-step Plan B itself is offering a $10 off coupon on its website.

I HIGHLY recommend looking in to long-term contraception solutions given that access to contraception may also be taken away if things continue to go downhill. I know it doesn't work for everyone, but I have LOVED my IUD and they're gonna have to tear it out of my cold, dead cervix. Obviously abstinence is the best contraception, but rape does happen....that's the nightmare we live in.

Take care of yourselves out there. And I hope others are able to chime in with other resources.
