And... it's still the same pill, regardless of why it's being prescribed. nossy Send a noteboard - 10/03/2012 06:41:23 PM
It contracepts even if it isn't being used for that reason.

I highly doubt that even Catholic institutions have problems with the Pill being prescribed to correct health issues. It's a question of whether or not employers should be forced to pay for something that can be achieved without recourse to pills. If a woman uses the Pill solely for contraception then she does not have a health problem.


Are you suggesting there should be a rule that allows this type of medicine (in all variations of generics, brands, etc) to be offered affordably if it's for health, but not if it is for contraception?

Once again: if the Pill is used to correct health problems IT IS NOT CONTRACEPTION - 10/03/2012 06:31:12 PM 802 Views

It's not that radical of a concept. - 11/03/2012 03:27:16 AM 841 Views

If the Catholic Church recognizes that exception, they would be well served to say so. - 11/03/2012 12:58:39 AM 983 Views
I don't give a flying fuck about the Catholic Church's position on this. - 11/03/2012 03:28:34 AM 819 Views
