Can i take my birth control pills with me inside my carryon aboard the plane? What about my contact solutions? My body cream and lotion?

birth control pill

maybe you ve already taken the plane, so this wont be of much use.

if you bring a body lotion or a cream you have to put it in a plastic bag.

My father's going to travelling from N.Y. to Santiago of Chile, and he is carring a new stainless steel shower arm 24" long by 3" width, and is hollow. Is there any problem to pass the security with that inside the luggage? or could be considered as a "weapon"?...Thanks.
