Can there be positive out come from taking the morning after pill, such as a rape situation?
I thought the question "Is it any different than abortion?" was funny because the morning after pill has the same things in it as the pill only stronger and the first thing the doctors tell patients is the morning after pill is not any form of abortion. I had a friend that had a bad situation happen to her and I went in with her to make her feel more comfortable and the doctor had her take the morning after pill.
