Female prisoners are entitled to the pill

Female prisoners in North Rhine-Westphalia are entitled to the pill, which is paid for by the state while they are in prison. This was announced by a spokesman for the Ministry of Justice on request. Background: The country's prisons are currently looking for a supplier for all medicines from January. Numerous female contraceptive products appear in the list of potential orders.

The regulations for health care in the country's correctional facilities devote an entire paragraph to contraception. He also explains why female prisoners are entitled to the pill - even without sex: "The contraceptive effect should still exist at the time of any prison leave or release". So that there is no gap, women can order the pill. "If there are no medical reasons, the prisoner's request should be granted," says the service regulations.

According to the ministry, how often this actually happens is “not statistically recorded”.
