First there was the Pill, then Plan B (the “morning-after” pill). Now, meet Ella. Approved by the FDA today, this drug prevents pregnancies up to five days after intercourse. Which also means, in lay terms, that it also acts as an abortifacient.
I wonder what’s next. So far, we have drugs that contracept/abort one day after intercourse and now one week after intercourse. Will the next drug be the “month-after” pill? How about the “year-after” pill?
And at this rate, why not just sterilization?
Seriously, if some women don’t want babies this badly, perhaps they shouldn’t have them.
Ever.
