Before Obamacare, my daughter could get any BC that her doctor prescribed her for a $9.00 co-pay. An IUD would’ve been free.

For medical reasons, her doctor prescribed her a progesterone-only pill. This was for MEDICAL REASONS.

Obamacare doesn’t cover that pill. Three times, her and her doctor have tried to find a solution that insurance will cover, but insurance doesn’t cover all birth control any more. Insurance only covers the few forms of birth control that the government (not your doctor) say you need and there is NO room for a doctor’s discretion. There is no room for medical conditions that may require hormonal replacement.

Birth control is now a one-sized-fits-all governmental regulation rather than a medical decision made my a doctor.

So, my daughter can get a pill that is contraindicated for her health.

At least it’s free.

I know that birth control isn’t the only area where this has happened.

So all these idiots who are screaming that ‘the republicans want to take away your birth control!’ have completely missed the fact that the democrats DID take away birth control and hormonal replacement options for thousands of women.

THERE is your “War on Women”. There is your lack of choice. There is the government in the exam room.

Those b@$t@4d$.

“I don’t want to hear about a phony ‘War on Women’ because I am a woman and I have been to war and this is not war.”

There was a WAR on one woman - and that woman was Sarah Palin. Stripped naked and massacred by the MSM. No-one noticed except for FR.
