Wait till teens start popping them every time they make out ... just as a precaution.

"Use of the abortion drug RU-486 has resulted in the deaths of 29 women worldwide, according to a new report." Try to keep up. The judge's ruling was on Levonorgestrel contraceptive pills--NOT on Mifepristone. How Emergency Contraception Works How are emergency contraceptive pills different from the abortion pill (Mifeprex, also referred to as RU-486)? The abortion pill, also known as mifepristone or RU-486 ("medical abortion" or "medication abortion"), is a different drug from ella, Plan B One-Step, Next Choice One Dose, Next Choice and Levonorgestrel Tablets, which are approved for sale as emergency contraception in the United States. Emergency contraceptive pills (also called “ morning after pills" or "day after pills") prevent pregnancy primarily, or perhaps exclusively, by delaying or inhibiting ovulation; they do not cause an abortion. For more about how emergency contraceptive pills work, read this comprehensive academic review of emergency contraception. Mifepristone, which is sold in the United States under the brand name Mifeprex, works differently from levonorgestrel (Plan B One-Step, Next Choice One Dose, Next Choice and Levonorgestrel Tablets) or ulipristal acetate (ella) emergency contraceptive pills. When given after a pregnancy has started, mifepristone stops the development of a pregnancy (which happens once a fertilized egg implants in the uterus). This drug is approved for use in early abortions in the United States, and many other countries. At a far lower dose, mifepristone has been shown to also be effective for preventing pregnancy, like emergency contraceptive pills, but it is only available for this use in China, Russia and Vietnam.
