BY LifeSiteNews.com HELSINKI, March 18, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The use of the abortifacient morning-after pill quadrupled in Finland last year after the pills became available without prescription. The Helsingin Sanomat reported yesterday that about 100,000 euros worth of the Norlevo pills were sold in 2001, when they still required a prescription. Last year a total of 36,000 packages were sold, at a total cost of 400,000 euros. The paper notes that the overall abortion rate - some 10,000 per year - remained virtually the same. However, the number of girls under 15 committing abortions has risen from 73 in 2001 to 90 last year.
