The Pros And Cons Of The Morning After Pill

Girls who gave birth while still in high school only 38% of them graduate. The reason the rest of them drop out is since they are forced to work in order to support their child. Nearly all cannot manage parenthood, school, work without family or friends help. With teenage mothers “Their children showed reduced educational attainment, had more emotional and behavioral problems, were at increased risk of maltreatment or harm, and showed higher rates of illness, accidents and injuries.” (Dennison P. 6) Just in the state of Texas, in 2012, there were 44 births per 1,000 girls’ state wide. Nationwide 50% of pregnancies are accidental in 2006. Teen parents also are a financial load to society, According to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, in 2004, all together taxpayers paid more than eight billion dollars to help support health cares designed to help the 420,000 teenage mothers who gave birth in that year. “results from economic analyses suggest that implementing evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention programs, expanding access to Medicaid family planning services, and utilizing mass media campaigns to promote safe sex may reduce teen pregnancy and save taxpayer dollars.” (Without the help of drugs like Plan B or any type of birth control, a large amount of teenage girls will become unplanned mothers, making more of a financial burden to society.

Planned Parenthood is one of the most controversial businesses out there to date. If you were to get a group of ten random people, I would imagine that at least six of them have an opinion related to it, and all of them an opinion on abortion, another highly controversial subject. Why is Planned Parenthood so controversial? Why do so many people want to fight for defunding from the federal government for that entity? Abortions are the biggest reason.

There are over 650 Planned Parenthood health centers across the United States, yet not everyone will receive the help they need. Planned Parenthood has been helping women take care of their bodies and take control of their lives since 1916. For so many people, topics like birth control and abortion are taboo and this should not be an acceptable way to live. This world is so new and needs to be a place where women can make decisions about their bodies without concern or judgement from others. Despite all Planned Parenthood does to help not only women, but everyone who walks through their doors, many people wish to shut it down. Defunding Planned Parenthood would do nothing but harm the United States.

Planned Parenthood is one of the most controversial organizations in the United States. It is an organization that helps a woman in need if she wants to abort a baby for any reason. Planned Parenthood defines themselves as: “A trusted health care provider, an informed educator, a passionate advocate, and a global partner helping similar organizations around the world.” (plannedparenthood.org) Planned Parenthood is one of the most debated topics among the presidential candidates and obviously there are two major different viewpoints from the Democratic and Republican side on this organization.

Today we dare to be scientist, analyst, or philosophers as we attempt further dissect the true meanings behind a photo posted to the Planned Parenthood twitter page. Attach to the photo was the following caption that states that, “Senators Graham & Cassidy are pushing the worst #ACArepeal bill yet. We've rejected every other version of Trumpcare.” Within these few words it is revealed the cause that brought this group of concerned American citizen to the capital. Various people, men and women alike, came out to show their support with pink T-shirts powers and signs in tow as made evident by the photograph. Now women have not always had a voice within politics, it is still a very young part of the American government dating back only a few decades. With this “call to arms” the men and women of the United States can get a word in about the terrible reform of the American healthcare system being proposed.

As President Donald Trump once said on the topic of abortion, “The answer is that there has to be some form of punishment.” Across the span of 200 years, women have not been treated equally. By 1900, women had virtually no rights in America. Most states in America had made abortion a felony, and had banned contraceptives (“Planned Parenthood”). Women were only granted the right to vote in 1920, 144 years after the birth of our country. Even today, women are still being held back in their careers and education because of unnecessary laws. Women across America are being treated unfairly, as Planned Parenthood and other reproductive health clinics are being defunded, women are subject to domestic and sexual violence, the wage gap continues to

The planned parenthood and parent crisis centre are America's health care options for everyone, however many people are weary of planned parenthood due to the fact they offer abortion to women who may not be able to have the child due to medical reasons or they can not care for it. People focus on the fact that planned parenthood offers abortion and because of that think it should be de-fund, this health programs provides people who can not give birth or don’t choose to.

NPR noted that overall suicide rates in the United States are rising. However, adolescent girls are most at risk.

There have been many different events that have caused controversy with today’s society. Some of these include the following: the 2016 presidential debate, Donald Trump, Renowned gun control, and many others. Everybody has their own opinion to believe what they choose and desire. That is one of the many amazing things about living in America, free to have our own opinions. Many things do not have a right or wrong answer. One thing in specific that caught my attention is the Planned Parenthood debate.

Plan B is a quick drug to take the morning after sex, before a pregnancy even starts. Plan B and birth control are two different types of drug with different side effects. As for Plan B, the females has no headaches, no causes of acne, and no weight gain. It is possible for nausea and vomiting. Therefore with birth control, females might have headaches, have acne problems, and some females gain weight from taking birth control. As for birth control, females will not get as sick as Plan B. There is a reason why Plan B is over-the-counter because it has no effect on the female unlike birth control. Plan B can be over-the-counter, but birth control has a very high risk that will cause a lot of side effects. The fact that Plan B is ineffective is the only reason why it is over-the-counter, other than that birth control is more effective and more risky than

Well, as the very name suggests, the morning after pill should be taken preferably within 12 hours after a contraceptive accident. However, you can also take it within 72 hours of having an unprotected sex. It works towards preventing pregnancy in the following three ways:

A survey conducted by Livescience.com showed that 22% of females that are of ages 15-19 that had sexual intercourse have used the pill at least once in their lives. The pill can also give teenś privacy.

In class, we have been discussion current controversies around the use of emergency contraception for women. Women’s reproductive rights are one of the most influential human rights battles facing our society. Women’s reproductive rights activists state that women should be allowed emergency contraception, because it declines the rates of abortions and is a staple for women’s health and independency. Opponents of emergency contraception declare it is against their religious beliefs because it causes abortions (). The article, “Crisis of Conscience,” which we discussed in class dives deep into this issue and provides a logical progression of the different areas cornering religious freedom of expression and human rights.

Suicide is the third leading cause of deaths in adolescents in the United States. Teen suicide is also often referred to as a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
