Now me:
This thread is making me laugh out loud. Just to an FYI (or perhaps I 
should say boring but true) in the old days before contraception as 
we know it, women would go to the local 'witch' to obtain herbal 
remedies for unwanted pregnancies.  Herbs which induce abortions and 
prevent pregnancy have been used widely since Egyptian times, and 
probably as long as humans have understood the uses of plants.  

Since the students at Hogwarts study Herbology I'm sure all sexually 
active witches know exactly which remedies can be used and when.  Of 
course I doubt this is actually taught in class, but you never know.  
Perhaps the girls have special after class lectures on menstruation, 
pregnancy and how to get rid of that unwanted little squib.
