MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Wisconsin medical professionals say they are looking into rumors that teenage girls are taking livestock drugs to end unwanted pregnancies.

The executive director of Care Net Pregnancy Center of Green County in Monroe says she has identified 10 girls who admitted taking prostaglandins, which are drugs given to cows. Anna Anderson says the girls told her the drugs were a cheap way to end their pregnancies without their parents finding out.

But other officials are more skeptical about the reports.

Wisconsin Department of Health Services spokesman Seth Boffeli says the agency has no documented cases of teenage girls taking livestock drugs to end pregnancies.

Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin spokeswoman Pat Else says her group also is investigating the reports but has not confirmed them.
