(a) As used in this Section:

"Contraceptive services" has the same meaning ascribed to that term in paragraph (2) of subsection (a) of Section 356z.4 of the Illinois Insurance Code, but does not include sterilization.

"Contraceptive supplies" means all contraceptive drugs, devices, and products approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration to prevent pregnancy, including long-acting reversible contraceptives, nonprescription oral hormonal contraceptives, and nonprescription emergency contraceptives.

(b) Any minor may give effective consent for contraceptive services or supplies and the consent of no other person is required.

For the purposes of accessing contraceptive services or supplies under this Act, a minor is deemed to have the same legal capacity to act and has the same powers and obligations as a person of legal age.
