I used to work in a pharmacy, I was going to be a pharmacist. I always thought that if a women went to the hospital after a rape, that the dr would automatically prescribe something like the morning after pill so that a pregnancy wouldn't occur.

As far as contraception goes, we dispensed a lot of pills. I never even thought about it, we always came down on the side of it's a husband and wife decision to make.

An addendum to my previous message would be that I quit working in a pharmacy 15 years ago. I think it would be quite a dilemma to dispense the 'morning after' pill without a dr's prescription. I'm really uncomfortable about the circumstances surrounding 'emergency contraception.' Unfortunately with some teenagers, it would always be an emergency because they don't plan to have sex and therefore no plans for birth control.
