I-Pill a morning after oral contraceptive (4)
********************************************
Are we debating in the right direction?
As medical folks our concern should be: 1. what are the odds of preventing an unwanted pregnancy with I-pill than with none used; 2. what it does not do (like preventing transmission of STDs); 3. What is the adverse effect profile of the agent; 4. How can the govt agencies ask the manufacturers to ensure correct education of the consumers; 5. 
What is the best way to help the teenagers adapt to the changing social values (not simply criticize them) Morality is an individual's and family's concern. Anyways, we have enough political inclination for being torch bearers of such morality in our country- real issues are a concern of only a few.
