Pregnancy Prevention Progress: Easier Pills, Plan B At Teen Check-Ups

On WBUR's Cognoscenti, writer Judy Foreman posts here today:

Earlier this month, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the country’s leading professional group for ob/gyn physicians, recommended that oral contraceptives — on the market for more than half a century now — finally be available over-the-counter.
It’s about time.

And also last week, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended that doctors routinely counsel teenagers about emergency contraception — better known as Plan B or the morning-after pill — and prescribe it in advance, even if the teen is not sexually active. Currently, girls under 17 need prescriptions for the pills.

WBUR's Here & Now discusses the issue here, and the segment elicited this cogent comment:

Well how about the boys? Isn't it time we gave them a script for the morning-after-pill to give to their partners?

Readers? Interesting scenario, isn't it? How might that dialogue in the steamed-up car go?
