Q: Birth Control

I am currently taking trilevlen28, and was wondering what anyone else has takin in their lives...And how much you pay for your birth control pills...And where you get them from. I get mine from the planned parenthood here in my town and I pay about 15-20 dollars per pack of pills. I know that my sister in law gets them for free, not too sure how she does that though. :d

I find it truly shocking that you guys have to pay for your birth control!
I guess what I find even worse is that we have such an epidemic of "accidental" pregnancies (often underage in the uk), given that our birth control is free, and if you prefer totally confidential.

In some places, I know, alot of phramacists refuse to refill or give women prescrip. Of birth control cause they believe it is against their religion or given will. So if they pharmacists doesn't want to give it you, he or she has to transfer you to another drug store even if it is 5 miles away.

I'm on ortho-tri-cyclen-lo, and my pills are also free. Whenever I go for my yearly appointment, my doc gives me 13 free packs of pills, which we last me until my next yearly appointment!! That way I dont have to worry about running out of pills or having to get a perscription!

With most insurance companies, birth control is free!!

Did anyone hear that men can get a perscription for condoms and not have to pay anything for them? I think its if he has allergies to latex ones or something..... Anyone know?
