The Constitutional Court (CC) ruled this Thursday that Ministry of Health Deliver emergency oral contraceptives or better known as “next day pills” to their care centers free of charge. This delivery must be carried out with prior relevant information and used in exceptional situations.

The organization ordered it after it declared valid a lawsuit filed by citizen Violeta Cristina Gomez Inostroza against the Department of Health for distributing the pill. She considered that her reproductive rights, her right to information, to equality and not to be discriminated against had been violated.

He CT also states in its decision that Ministry of Health Free national distribution of emergency oral contraceptives should be promoted as part of government family planning policy. In addition, it is indicated that both the World Health Organization and the FDA, and Minsa herself, have recognized that this is not an abortion, so there are no objective grounds or grounds to prevent citizens from accessing it.

The proposal also states that reproductive rights include recognizing that people can decide whether or not to have children, whether they can reproduce, how often to have children, how many children to have, the choice of the person they want to have children with, or choose a method of contraception that they will use.

The exercise of this right requires that women have all the information and methods of contraception that the state can provide them, the collegiate body says.

The verdict bears the signatures of Justices of the Peace Francisco Morales, Helder Dominguez, Manuel Monteagudo and Cesar Ochoa. From my side,
Luz Pacheco and Gustavo Gutierrez voted unanimously to dismiss the claim as unfounded.
