Judge orders couple not to have children

[DanaC]

Yes we have the morning after pill. I am not wholly sure but I think they are now available ( or about to become available) over the counter at the pharmacy. Standard contraceptive pill is available on the NHS which means if you are out of work or under the age of 16 you dont even have to pay a prescription charge, though you do have to get it via your doctor ( I htink that's still the case) Visits to the doctor dont cost anything though so it's only ever prescription charges which need be taken into account. The prescription charge is a standard charge which is applied to each item on the prescription regardless of that item's value. This means some things are cheaper to buy over the counter *smiles* and the doc usually advises that. Other stuff is much more expensive over the counter than the standard charge of ( I think) £5.80...again though thats not applicable if you are out of work or on low ( assisted) income or too young to earn.

(edited to say, I just checked and standard contraceptives dont incur any prescription charges. Morning after pills also))
