I live in a state that could very well swing Republican this fall which means abortion and contraceptives could be forced underground. The next time the Republicans take D.C. they will be made illegal nationwide, which means crossing state lines won't work. Stockpiling medicines isn't a bad idea but if we do have to resurrect the Jane Collective, wouldn't it be better to be able to make it ourselves?

If a small group of comrades could muster a couple thousand dollars for lab equipment or securely access a university lab, then it would just be a matter of sourcing ingredients and following a recipe, right? Is there information on how to do this?

    you can buy the raw synthetic hormones from alibaba - you're looking for ethinyl-estradiol and medroxyprogesterone as the most common base ingredients. get powders and pack them into empty capsules you can find anywhere including Amazon. be sure to get the desired weights right and use a filler to ensure the caps are fully packed. you shouldn't need complicated equipment. just prepare it the way you would food - measure accurately and be precise with the ratios, don't get hair in it, and wear gloves.
