    Source: 'Uber for Birth Control' Faces Battle from Conservatives | Medpage Today

    It's a telemedicine app that seems rather innocuous -- enter your info, have it reviewed by a physician, and get a prescription. The California-based company behind it has raised millions to support its mission of expanding access to the pill, ring, or morning-after pill with minimal hurdles.
    . . .
    Nurx, an app that's been called the "Uber for birth control," lets patients obtain a variety of contraceptives from the touch of a smartphone; it also gives women access to Plan B and Ella, two forms of the morning-after pill, which is effective in preventing a pregnancy after sex. Women can order these drugs in a few easy steps: answer a series of health questions; provide basic demographic information; and choose a preferred drug. A doctor then reviews the patient's information, writes a prescription, and the drug is delivered to either the patient's home or her local pharmacy.

    A good option. I had read about something similar for foreign countries.

    I've long thought that every bottle male pills should have a second bottle of morning after pills.

    The extra Rx isn't always necessary.

    An old man goes into a pharmacy, asks for two male pills and demands that the pharmacist cut them in half. The pharmacist winks at him, "OK, but do you realize they won't be as effective?" The old man says, "Listen sonny, I'm 80 years old. I don't want them for sex. I need them for getting me hard enough so I don't pee on my shoes."

    ^^ I hope you mean just the seat down, not the lid too.

    Lid down is how we keep pets from drinking from the bowl, leaving slobber and muddy paw prints on the seat.
