Plan B, in this case the morning after pill, is a different beast from what we usually discuss when talking about abortion. There are no real negative consequences when taking it (even more so when compared with contraception pills) so I am not sure why you are so afraid.
IUDs are much better than pills anyway, and you can forget about them without issue. They also don’t cause hormone-related problems. If you are serious about your argument, you should advocate for this sort of device (and also abortion, because even if they are generally reliable, 0% risk does not exist).
> Also the context in this subthread is about commercial advertising and the impression of "cool", not about medical information.
That is a misunderstanding of the law in question, for which “advertising” means “making people aware of it”, and does include things like what is put on a doctor’s website and any document they distribute.

But the people writing laws in conservative states don't see it that way. Many of them are looking to ban anything that stop pregnancy after sex, specifically including plan B pills. A few extremists are even talking about going after contraception too. It isn't about scientific definitions. It is about increasing the risk of pregnancy in order to dissuade young people from having sex.
