I quit hormonal birth control a couple of years ago and ever since I’ve dealt with people questioning my decision and wondering why I wouldn’t just go on, or back on, the pill? It’s simple and, according to them, there are minimal side effects and a lot less chances of getting pregnant.
So I wanted to share the stats from planned parenthood about each birth control option, hormonal or not, and talk about combining a few options that align with you and your values and where you’re at in your life or relationship to form the optimal form of protection against pregnancy. Keep in mind that NO BIRTH CONTROL METHOD IS 100%, you are always taking a chance when having sex. This in mind, I think it’s important to do the research before you choose which option is best for you, your body and your mental health.
