One of my favorite things about ya/na fantasy is probably that the maturity levels of a several hundred year old man is finally enough to match that of a 16-20 something year old woman and I honestly think that’s the most realistic thing in these books.
being in your early twenties is like [grocery shopping alone] [having instant noodles for dinner] [remembering random details about that one friend you haven’t spoken to in five years] [feeling overwhelming guilt for every purchase that isn’t strictly “necessary”] [having midday naps] [finding out through facebook that the girl who was mean to you in high school has a husband and a baby] [falling a little in love with every stranger on public transport] [pretending you’re not afraid of being alone] [wondering when you’ll feel like a fully realized person] [listening to bands you liked in middle school] [blinking and it’s suddenly december] [failing to imagine yourself ten years from now] [feeling like you’re running out of time]

Nurx will ship birth control to your home without you ever having to see a doctor. You get a prescription by providing one of their doctors with your information (they have HIPAA protections and you can see the doctor’s credentials too). You can either pick a medication, have it picked for you, or (I think) continue a prescription you already have. I think it only operates in the USA.
You can use insurance but you don’t have to (and most brands without insurance are $15/month but the cheaper generics can be as low as $5/month). They offer the pill but they also offer diaphrams, the patch, and a few other options as well.
They operate in almost all 50 states and have a timely messaging system if you ever have any questions about your symptoms/medication.
