[FONT=""][COLOR=""][SIZE=""]what does the overturning of roe v wade mean for contraceptives? like birth control and condoms. will they still have them[/size][/color][/font]
Hi there, thanks for reaching out! Your concerns are perfectly valid now with the overturn of Roe V. Wade. The overturn of Roe V. Wade is specifically focused on abortions, not birth control. Birth control became regulated several years before Roe V. Wade and, therefore, does not a direct connection.
Basically — for now — birth control and contraceptives are legal. They need to remain legal too not only for those who do not want to have children; but also those who depend on birth control for hormone imbalance and other issues that affect women. Condoms are a lot easier to get than people realize. At my local pharmacist, they are in the same area where you pick up prescription and OTC medication.
