Free Prescription Birth Control Pros And Cons
The recommendation from the US government for free prescription birth control is very necessary, the pros are it would combat unwanted pregnancies, it will help to control the population, and as much as we would like to have teenagers practice abstinence, they don't so it is needed to keep the teenage pregnancy under control. The cons are that the birth control may go unused if the recipient doesn't have to pay for it, there are so many side effects that go along with taking birth control, the US government may be liable for any harm that the free prescription could

    As the Supreme Court has ruled against the ObamaCare mandate recently, commonly referred as the The Affordable Care Act (ACA), many of the religious communities are overwhelmed about the decision and take it as a victory whereas others are outraged about this situation as women community will be greatly affected by the rulings of the court. It is a setback for the women society that in the name of religious liberty they will be deprived of their medical concerned issues. The companies that consist of religious ideology will be able to legitimize something that may harm others. Certainly these events will have constant series of effects on the society and as well as some changes may also occur in the legislation relating to ObamaCare. Obamacare covers twenty types of birth control, upon four of them; the court has objected (Tom Cohen, 2014).…

    In the 2011 Movie Trailer Limitless directed by Neil Burger, Eddie Morra, played by Bradley Cooper, is given a translucent pill that lets him access more than just 20% of his brain; all of it actually.

    Imagine that it takes a couple months instead of a couple days to get a cancer screening or the mammogram required for a certain age range. A man or woman fears that the doctor’s office will not accept their insurance and can’t pay the medical bill. A teen needs an STD test because he or she is unaware of the harms in sex. A pregnant woman needs a place to feel safe and not judged by her personal choices. Planned Parenthood gives each of these people what they need and provides the need in an efficient and timely manner. The United States Senate has been recently debating on whether or not Planned Parenthood should be funded based their issues on one subject, abortion and the research connected to abortion. Planned Parenthood should be funded by the government because it does not just provide abortions, but also other health options such as affordable disease testing, relationship development, and gender identification for women, men, and teenagers.…

    According to People, Planned Parenthood had received around 20,000 donations in the name of Mike Pence, the Vice President, since the election. The reason behind many people donating, and in the name of the Vice President, is many don’t agree with his beliefs, and women care about having rights. Women and others caring about their bodies is nothing new as well, in the cases of Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey it widely speaks that state or spouses can intervene their decision. People, most conservatives, believe that Planned Parenthood’s agenda is just abortions which has called for controversy, but it is more than just abortions. Planned Parenthood should be government funded because it empowers women to be able to choose what they believe is right for them and helps people receive services at a low cost.…

Since its founding in 1916 by Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood has amounted to a number of people rallying both for and against them. The fight for Planned Parenthood has never completely been resolved, and even now the issue of federally- funding Planned Parenthood is an issue discussed at large when deciding who to elect to represent our country for the next four to eight years. People advocating for the funding of Planned Parenthood by the federal government are doing something that is rightfully so. It should not be an issue whether or not Planned Parenthood should be funded or not. The question that asks whether it should…

    The issue of the contraception mandate may be one of the biggest political stories of the year. It is a law brought forward by the Obama administration that requires all employers to offer contraceptive coverage. This has been a requirement for all company healthcare coverage programs for many years already but religious affiliates have been exempt from following the rules. Obama is looking to change all that by requiring even religion-based employers, who have previously not offered coverage, to participate. Such services required by the contraception mandate will violate some of these religion-based employers’ moral conscience.…

    Once again, America finds itself facing a controversial issue. From here, the land of the free to erupt into another state of ceaseless internal conflict. Planned Parenthood is an organization that provides beneficial sexual health services to Americans, but in turn, it carries out abortion services, which is popularly opposed.

    Birth Control VS Condoms

    • 569 Words
    • 3 Pages

    There’s a long running argument, especially going on today, which is more effective against pregnancy; condoms or birth control? Birth control can be utilized in different forms other than a pill, while condoms are mainly only used for men, but it is said that there are such a thing as “female condoms”. Some couples use both and some use just birth control because “it feels better without a condom”, others use just condoms because birth control can provoke unwanted hormones and side effects that can ruin the sexual experience. Condoms are said to only have a 98% effectiveness against pregnancy and protects against most STDs. Birth control is almost as effective but doesn’t protect against STDS. However, no form of birth control, besides abstinence, is 100% effective.…
