As for the insurance thing, my insurance pays for over the counter allergy medicine for my wife as long as a doctor writes her a prescription.
But I agree on the medical implications. My wife has has issues with various forms of birth control and I think it would be smart to talk with a doctor before and during its use.
Most people don't realize that there are a lot of different doses and types of birth control, and that not all women are able to take them all without some potentially serious complications. I've said this before. I can't take many kinds of birth control because I have a blood disorder that increases my chances of a blood clot, which is something that many birth control pills also do.
