In this episode of Takin’ Care Of Lady Business®, host Jennifer Justice welcomed Samantha Miller, the co-founder and CEO of Cadence OTC, to discuss the company's transparent and affordable solution to increasing over-the-counter access to reproductive healthcare, including the birth control pill, the morning after pill, pregnancy tests and UTI test kits - access so easy you can buy at 7-Eleven 24 hours a day.

Learn why emergency contraceptive access is crucial, especially in restrictive states and rural areas where 23 million women do not currently have access, and learn the difference between the morning-after pill and the abortion pill - they are not the same. Samantha discusses how their partnership with little drug stores is allowing access to much more affordable reproductive healthcare in emergency contraceptive deserts. Delve into Cadence OTC’s rigorous FDA approval process, immune to influence from money, brand, or politics.

It's just made up of progesterone, and it's the form of progesterone that's in the regular birth control pill. It's the safest form of progesterone called levonorgestrel. And that's all it is. It's just levonorgestrel, which is one of the hormones in the regular birth control pill. It's at a higher dose, so it's very safe, and it's not going to impact your ability to get pregnant later. It's not going to interfere with your regular birth control if you have one. The abortion pill is something unique and interesting." - Samatha Miller Learn more about your ad choices.
