Increasing Access: Emergency Contraception Vending Machines on Campus
Across the U.S., more college campuses are installing vending machines for emergency contraception. Learn how My BIO TESTS can bring a wellness vending solution—cost-effective, turnkey, and student-friendly—to your campus.
Growing Campus Access to Emergency Contraception
A recent report highlights that 39 universities across 17 states now offer emergency contraception via vending machines, with an additional 20 institutions considering them. The rise in adoption underscores a heightened commitment to student health and accessibility.
Why Vending Machines Matter Now More Than Ever
- Convenience, Privacy, and Speed: Traditional distribution methods—like visiting a clinic—can be time-consuming, costly, or stigmatizing. Vending machines offer discreet, immediate access.
- Student Advocacy as a Catalyst: Many of these machines were installed following student-led advocacy efforts, illustrating how grassroots movements are shaping campus health services.
- Cost Benefits: At the University of Washington, EC is sold for only $12.70 per dose, a fraction of retail prices
At My BIO TESTS, we help campuses meet this rising demand with a comprehensive, student-first approach:
- Full Wellness Solutions: Beyond EC, our machines can include OTC medicines, personal care, self-tests, and more.
- Zero Upfront Cost, Zero Headache: We handle installation, stocking, and servicing—even offering supply-only options for existing machines.
- Budget-Friendly, Discreet Products: Tailored selections ensure affordability and privacy.
