Most women have heard of Plan B (sometimes called the “Morning After Pill”). It’s the emergency contraception pill taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. You don’t want to be pregnant, so you take a pill to make sure you aren’t.
But Plan C – What is that?
Plan C is the idea that there is one final option in a three-step plan. When birth control (Plan A) and emergency contraception (Plan B) fail to prevent a pregnancy, you then need a Plan C.
Plan C reduces all your options into one final option – abortion pills to be taken at home, with the entire process completed in your home without medical supervision.
But hold on, before we rush into an A-B-C plan that is supposed to be a “one-size-fits-all” plan, let’s consider the actual options that are available to us.
You deserve access to the full range of options because there isn’t just one final choice if your Plan A and your Plan B don’t go as planned. An unplanned pregnancy that exists, despite using birth control and taking a Plan B pill, has more than one final option.
What’s more, Plan C – without in-person access to a provider – makes some pretty risky assumptions. It assumes you are actually pregnant and in the early stages of pregnancy. It assumes you are not in the process of miscarrying. It assumes that your pregnancy is located within the uterus and is not ectopic.
You don’t need assumptions as part of your “Plan C”. You need accurate medical information – including a free ultrasound – so you can make the best decision for your reproductive health.
There’s a place you can receive medical services (like a pregnancy test and ultrasound), support, and a safe place right here in Newport News, Virginia. It’s called Alcove Health Women’s Clinic. What’s more, you can explore all of your options and get the medical services you need at no cost to you.
Don’t let anyone plan your life for you. Don’t settle for assumptions and a “good for all” single option. You deserve better.
