BC pill over the counter
Perhaps making BC more accessible to women, also cheaper, would help lower the number of abortions performed.

Women may get pill without prescription | UK | Reuters

LONDON (Reuters) - Women could be able to get the contraceptive pill from their chemist without a prescription, a health minister said on Thursday.
Lord Darzi, a leading surgeon brought into Prime Minister Gordon Brown's government, said the programme could be piloted among pharmacists or nurses.
The pill is currently available only with a prescription from a doctor, although most pharmacies are able to provide the "morning-after pill" without a doctor's authorisation.
Darzi suggested women could be given the oral contraceptive after a full assessment by a trained health professional.
He said it was wrong to suggest the contraceptive pill was being made available over the counter.
The greatest danger to liberty lurks in the insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.

--Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis
