I don't think I posted about this at the time, but I probably should have. Regardless, some of you were probably aware of the problems that blogger BB at the Den of the Biting Beaver (who lives in Ohio) had when she tried to get emergency contraception. She eventually did get her hands on Plan B, but worried that the delay would interfere with the drug's efficacy. And it turns out she worried with cause, because now she writes that the EC failed.

She deserves mad props for being willing to publish her experiences on her blog. She obviously set herself up for a great deal of hate-mail, in all possible forms. And it's worth signal-boosting this story, I think, so that people know what kinds of problems women are still facing, even though the FDA approved Plan B.

I got this story from Broadsheet on Salon.com. They provide a pretty good summary of the situation. I advise going there for details.
