While watching Lauren’s and Catherine’s videos I kept returning to Socrates’s apology —in ancient Greece, this meant a rational defense, not an expression of regret— in front of the tribunal that would condemn him to die. The old war veteran and sage told his Athenian peers, “the unexamined life is not worth living”.

FORCE (Feminists Organized to Resist, Create and Empower)

FORCE - Feminists Organized to Resist, Create, and Empower -
is the feminist collective that operates as an internship program offered through the Women and Gender Student Space.

FORCE creates feminist community on the UA campus and also offers educational outreach programs. From our weekly Sip n’ Bitch to special events like Craftivism, Community Conversations, feminist focused film, or the annual SlutWalk, the FORCE interns are committed to personal growth, intersectional justice, and campus change. If you’d like to be part of our feminist community and help create change, connect with us on our social media platforms to see how to get involved. We also welcome you to apply to be an intern! All genders are welcome.

Please direct any questions to Audrie Ford, oddtreeford@arizona.edu and our student co-directors agnorris@arizona.edu and schavez4@arizona.edu

FORCE is a for-credit internship. New interns are admitted to the internship by first enrolling for credit through a major/minor department, ex: EDL 293, GWS 393, or Independent Study. You may also volunteer for no credit, but will be expected to attend internship class, plan, and be as involved in the same capacity as our for-credit interns. It is a student's responsibility to confirm academic credit with your home department and enroll with an academic advisor, this is different from an internship advisor. NOTE: This is different from internship advisor/coordinator in the WGRC. Once admitted, the intern must remain in good academic standing to remain enrolled in an internship for the semester.

Follow FORCE on Instagram for the most up to date information on this week's events!

Purpose: To educate and inspire a new generation of young adults to advocate for reproductive freedom.

Who are we? UAPPGEN is a group of individuals who believe that all people are entitled to reproductive freedom. This freedom has many forms and we can only recognize all of them if we work from an intersectional and diverse base. Working with our local Planned Parenthood affiliate we seek to engage our community not only in comprehensive sexual education but also raise awareness to the threats that are directed towards reproductive choices.

What do we do? As a campus organization, the main focus in our events and programming is empowerment. We fully acknowledge the lack of accurate, scientific sexual education in the United States and more specifically in Arizona. One of our main goals for this semester is to provide comprehensive sexual information to the UA community. We hope to accomplish this through open discussions that are facilitated by students, for students. Beyond education, we are an advocacy group for reproductive rights. Our advocacy includes lobbying of lawmakers, canvassing our local community, and making our voices heard in both State and Federal government.

Interested in Joining? We are always looking for individuals who are motivated to help us in our fight for reproductive justice. We invite people of all identities to drop in on a meeting and introduce yourself.

For more information, please visit us on social media (Instagram @uappgen) OR check out the links in our linktree: https://linktr.ee/uappgen

Plan B Morning-After Pill: How it works & Side-Effects

Plan B Morning-After Pill: How it works & Side-Effects

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Plan B pill works best when you take it within three days after unprotected sex. You can get Plan B at your local drugstore or pharmacy.

How effective is Plan B One-Step and other levonorgestrel morning-after pills?

A levonorgestrel morning-after pill - like Plan B One Step, Take Action, My Way, Option 2, Preventeza, AfterPill, My Choice, Aftera, and EContra - can lower your chance of getting pregnant by 75-89% if you take it within three days after unprotected sex.

You can take Plan B and other levonorgestrel morning-after pills up to five days after unprotected sex. But sooner is better - the longer you wait to take it, the less effective it is.

These types of morning-after pills may not work if you weigh 155 pounds or more. If that's the case, the copper IUD or ella are better options for you. Our handy quiz can help you figure out which EC is best for you.

Though there are many different brands of levonorgestrel morning-after pills, they all work the same way. All brands have the same amount of medicine and the same effectiveness, no matter how much they cost.

How do I use Plan B and other levonorgestrel morning-after pills?

Take levonorgestrel morning-after pills (like Plan B One-Step, Take Action, My Way, AfterPill, Aftera, and EContra) as soon as you can after unprotected sex. Simply swallow the tablet the way you would any other pill. Read the instructions that come in the package for more information.

You can take these morning-after pills up to five days after unprotected sex, but they work much better if you take them during the first three days.

Take a pregnancy test if you haven't gotten your period within three weeks after taking the morning-after pill.

Don't take Plan B One-Step or other levonorgestrel morning-after pills if you've taken ella in the last five days.

Does the Plan B morning-after pill have side effects?

The morning-after pill is super safe, and Plan B side effects aren't super common. There have been no reports of serious problems out of the millions of people who've taken it.

After you take the morning-after pill, it's totally normal for your next period to be different from what you're used to. It may come earlier or later, and be heavier, lighter, or more spotty. Or it may be the same as it normally is.

You may get an upset stomach, feel lightheaded or dizzy, or have tender breasts for a short while when you take the morning-after pill. If you throw up within two hours of taking the pill, it won't work and you'll need to take it again.

Where can I get the Plan B morning-after pill?

You can buy levonorgestrel morning-after pills (like Plan B One-Step, Take Action, My Way, Option 2, Preventeza, AfterPill, My Choice, Aftera, and EContra) over the counter without a prescription at drugstores and pharmacies. It doesn't matter how old you are and it doesn't matter what your gender is. Sometimes the morning-after pill is locked up or kept behind the counter, so you may have to ask the pharmacist or store clerk for help getting it - but you don't have to have a prescription or show your ID.

You can also get the morning-after pill at many family planning or health department clinics, and Planned Parenthood health centers.

How Much Does Plan B Cost?

Plan B One-Step usually costs about $40-$50. Generics like Take Action, My Way, Option 2, Preventeza, My Choice, Aftera, and EContra generally cost less - about $11-$45. You can also order a generic brand called AfterPill online for $20 + $5 shipping. (AfterPill can't be shipped quick enough to use if you need a morning-after pill right now, but you can buy it and put it in your medicine cabinet in case you need it in the future.)

The brand of EC you buy or how much you pay for it doesn't matter - all brand-name and generic levonorgestrel morning-after pills work just as well.

You may be able to get the morning-after pill for free or low cost from a Planned Parenthood health center, your local health department, or another family planning clinic. Call your nearest Planned Parenthood to see if they can help you get emergency contraception that fits your budget.

If you have health insurance or Medicaid, there's a good chance you can get Plan B for free - you just have to ask your nurse or doctor for a prescription so your health insurance will cover them (even though you don't need a prescription to buy these types of morning-after pills over-the-counter). The staff at your local Planned Parenthood health center can also help you figure out if your health insurance will pay for your morning-after pill. Read more about using health insurance to pay for emergency contraception.

Since the morning-after pill works better the sooner you take it, it's a good idea to get it BEFORE you need it. You can keep it in your medicine cabinet and it will be there for you, just in case. That way you can take it as soon as possible if an accident happens, and you won't have to worry about finding it at the store when you're stressed out.

What Medicines Affect How Well Plan B works?

These medicines or supplements can make Plan B and other levonorgestrel morning-after pills not work as well:

* The antibiotic Rifampin (other antibiotics don't make Plan B less effective)

* The antifungal Griseofulvin (other antifungals don't make Plan B less effective)

* Certain HIV medicines

* Certain anti-seizure medicines (these are sometimes also used to treat psychiatric disorders like bipolar disorder)

* The herb St. John's Wort

You can ask a nurse, doctor, or pharmacist about any medications you're taking, and they can help you figure out if Plan B is a good option for you.
