Gov. Katie Hobbs said the rule will go into effect immediately. It applies to self-administered birth control such as hormonal and oral contraceptives, and patients 18 or older need only complete a screening and a blood pressure test.
Isn’t a “screening” the same or worse than seeing a doctor?
A doctor has the ethical responsibility to tell you how to properly use birth control safely. If this “screening” is completed by a non-medical-professional what is to stop a religious zealot from shaming a woman who wants BC for her non-Jesus sanctioned fucking?
Move out of the Red States. They are never going to change. Also if someone makes a comment like that to you, stop what you are doing and give them the dead eyed silent stare of a shark until they finally leave.
That’s nice. Btw is there a FAM (Fertility awarness) community in lemmy ? I can’t seem to find it. I reckon maybe people interacting with this post would be in the know.
