Gloria:
Unfortunately, and this is a very important health advocacy issue, over the past couple of years, actually the last, I would say couple of decades, access to really low-cost birth control has become increasingly difficult for women because federal funding has gone down and in many places states don’t fund family planning services. So, that’s, it’s an issue, but public health systems, Planned Parenthoods, and sometimes community health clinics can offer women birth control at lower cost than their regular doctor and pharmacist.
