Free Plan B

Planned Parenthood states that anyone, regardless of age, can purchase Plan B and other brands of levonorgestrel morning-after pills (Emergency Contraception) over the counter. Through the Alabama Cohosh Collaborative program, Plan B is currently available to individuals aged 14 and older.

What is emergency contraception?

When unprotected sex happens, we’re sometimes left wondering: could I get pregnant? If this is you, emergency contraception is a safe and effective way to prevent a pregnancy from starting since it’s taken after you had sex with your partner. It’s intended to be used for emergencies only—not as a regular form of birth control like condoms, birth control pills, and IUDs.

 

The morning-after pill—like Julie— is one of the most common and convenient forms of emergency contraception since it’s an over-the-counter pill found at pharmacies and stores like Walmart, nationwide. Both Plan B and Julie have the same ingredient—levonorgestrel—which is FDA-approved and legal in all 50 states. When used correctly, it can significantly reduce your chance of getting pregnant.
