Ungahle Ukwazi Ukuthenga Amaphilisi Okulawula Ukuzalwa Ku-Counter Kungekudala

Njengamanje, ukuphela kwendlela ongathola ngayo ukulawulwa kokuzalwa kwamahomoni, njengephilisi, e-U.S. Ukuya kudokotela wakho bese uthola incwadi kadokotela. Lokhu kungenza kube nzima futhi kungaphazamisi abesifazane ukuthola ukuvimbela ukubeletha, futhi njengoba sazi, ngcono ukufinyelela kokulawulwa kokubeletha, lehla izinga lokukhulelwa elingafuneki. Ngokusho kweCenters for Disease Control and Prevention, amazinga okukhulelwa kwentsha aphansi ngokomlando, futhi lokho kuhlobene kakhulu nokulawulwa kokubeletha.
Nokho, ngenxa yenkampani yaseFrance ebizwa ngokuthi i-HRA Pharma, indlela abantu abaningi e-U.S. abathola ngayo ukulawulwa kokuzalwa kwamahomoni cishe kusenqubweni yokushintsha. Basebenzisane ne-Ibis Reproductive Health, engenzi nzuzo ekhuthaza amalungelo abesifazane okuzala, ukudala iphilisi lokulawula ukuzalwa eliphezu kwekhawunta. Yize inqubo yokuthola lolu hlobo lwemithi evunyelwe yi-Federal Drug Administration yokusetshenziswa kwe-OTC yinde kakhulu (sikhuluma iminyaka), siyajabula ukubona lezi zinhlangano ezimbili zihlangana ukuze ibhola ligingqike.
Ngenkathi abaningi bevuma ukuthi kuwumqondo omuhle ukuhlinzeka ngenketho yokulawulwa kokuzalwa kwe-OTC, izinkampani zemithi yaseMelika bezinqikaza ukwethula eyodwa emakethe, mhlawumbe ngenxa yesikhathi nezindleko ezidingekayo ukwenza lokho. Ngokusho kwe-HRA, akunangqondo, nokho. "Kwa-HRA, siyaziqhenya ngomsebenzi wethu wokuqala wokwandisa ukufinyelela ekuvimbeleni inzalo ezigidini zabesifazane," inkampani itshele iVox. "Izindlela zokuvimbela inzalo ngomunye wemithi efundwa kakhulu emakethe namuhla futhi zijabulela ukuxhaswa isikhathi eside ngongoti bezempilo nabezempilo."
Kuyiqiniso ukuthi ngokuphelele, iphilisi liphephe kakhulu ukusebenzisa. Ingcuphe enkulu ethwalwa yizindlela zokuvimbela inzalo ngomlomo ngamahlule egazi, ngokuvamile ahlotshaniswa nephilisi lenhlanganisela, noma uhlobo lwephilisi olufaka phakathi ama-estrogen ne-progestin hormone. Lokho kungaba yingxenye yesizathu sokuthi iphilisi le-HRA lizoba yi-progestin kuphela, njengamanye amaphilisi wokulawula ukubeletha emakethe. Amaphilisi e-progestin kuphela anezinye izinzuzo, njengokukhanyisa noma izikhathi zokuma ngokuphelele. Ngokwengeziwe, i-Plan B, esivele ivunyelwe ukusetshenziswa kwe-OTC, iqukethe i-progestin kuphela, okusho ukuthi sekuvele kukhona umuthi ovunyelwe onezithako ezifanayo, okwenza kube lula ukuthi lo omusha uvunyelwe. Futhi, njengoba abanye abantu basebenzisa i-Plan B njengendlela yabo eyinhloko yokulawula ukuzalwa, kungaba ngcono ngalabo bantu ukuba bashintshele kunketho ye-OTC esebenza kangcono. Uhlelo B luvimbela kuphela ukukhulelwa okungama-75% wesikhathi, kanti iphilisi likuvimbela ku-a okuningi izinga eliphakeme-99% uma lithathwe njengoba liyalelwe, ngokuya ngePlanned Parenthood.
Futhi kufanele wazi ukuthi ungathola amaphilisi okulawula ukubeletha kumakhemisi wakho eCalifornia nase-Oregon, yize lokhu kungenjalo "ngaphezulu kwekhawunta" ngoba kufanele ubonane nosokhemisi ngaphambi kokuthola umuthi. Iminwe yeqe isimemezelo salesi sidakamizwa esisha kuzokwenza kube lula ukuthola ukulawulwa kokubeletha kuzo zonke izifundazwe. (Uma ufuna ukwazi ukuthi lokhu kungazithinta kanjani izingqondo zabantu maqondana nezocansi, nansi indaba yowesifazane oyedwa yokuthi kwakunjani ukukhula ngephilisi i-OTC.)
