No moral problem with the idea, just surprised at the capability.

The decision should be the woman's and no one else's.

Aren't they trying to redifine the word contraceptive here?
By definition that mean something to prevent a pregnancy occuring in the first place, not dealing with it after it's happened.
It's just a long life morning after pill, not a contraceptive.

Interesting comment that existing methods we all consider contraception may also be acting after the fact.

+1. I suspect that it will be used as the late alternative to the morning after pill which I think can only be used within the first three days.
