This is an extremely dangerous generalization to make. Every medication requires a risk to benefit analysis between an individual and their doctor. Birth control can be very good, even life saving, for some bodies.

it’s really not. if you look at the recent studies between POTS, and other heart issues you will see that there is a strong link between BC and these conditions. it’s the fact that people are OKAY taking stuff that is bioengineered, then wonder why they have all these conditions, that’s why you don’t take drugs from medical corporations. it’s all a money grab, eventually you will have something you have to be seen for, that’s how they make money.

Again, individual risk:benefit analysis between a person and their doctor. Pregnancy holds far more risks than birth control and makes far more money for corporations.

again incorrect, it doesn’t. i think you need to do some medical research love.

Lol you’re funny. You really don’t need a platform to spread this harmful rhetoric on so I’ll be blocking you now. Please find the time to discuss your concerns with a qualified medical professional who is paid enough to chat and debunk your conspiracy theories. Bye.

my iud is more than 99% effective😮‍💨 even tho it’s incredibly unlikely to conceive i have mifepristone and misoprostol in my cabinet. it’s totally reasonable to get on birth control and want to be nut in. birth control is designed and tested to prevent pregnancy even if your partner ejaculates inside you * every time *

this might be a stupid question, but is there like a specific iud

Anonymous #6 19h

it also increases your risk of having an ectopic pregnancy if you get pregnant, so you letting him nut in your even tho you have an IUD is on you lol. btw ectopics can kill you very easily if not found in a reasonable amount of time. you’re literally setting yourself up for pregnancy if you willingly let him nut in you even on bc. pls don’t reproduce with your mindset.

per year, there is less than a 1% chance of me getting pregnant with an IUD, and if I did get pregnant, there’s about a 95% chance it wouldn’t be ectopic. i also take monthly pregnancy tests just to be safe so any pregnancy would be caught very early. for me, that very small risk is worth it to have an enjoyable sex life. i’m sorry if birth control caused problems for you but it’s okay for you to personally be against it without demonizing birth control

someone else answered but there is also an arm implant, where i live it’s called nexplanon. that might be an option worth checking out. i love long-acting, reversible contraceptive!!

Okay so it sounds like you’re currently on a daily pill, which is hard to keep up with. You could try a patch, which is like a sticker that’s changed weekly; a ring, which is like a silicone hairtie that you insert like a tampon and change monthly. And then there are LARCs, which are administered by a healthcare provider. IUDs last 3-10 years, Nexplanon is 5. There’s also the shot, but I wouldn’t jump for that first. Do any of those sound better?

To an extent… combo pills, which is what most people use, can be taken +/-12 hours and still be effective. Most mini pills are +/-3 hours. OP which pill are you using?

Anonymous birthcontrolfairy 19h

I googled and it says mini, 0.35 of norethindrone per tablet

Anonymous OP 19h

There’s still no need to worry because the condom was your first layer of protection and it didn’t fail, but that pill is one that’s important to take in that +/-3 hour window or effectiveness is compromised. With love, you would def be a good candidate for a lower maintenance method! Lord knows I wouldn’t be able to keep up with a pill either.

I’ll def keep this in mind and bring it up at my next appointment

reminder than condoms are not 100% effective prevention so you can’t say for sure it did not fail. i’m not fear mongering, just trying to add since some people may not know that just bc a condom didn’t break or slip doesn’t mean it’s impossible to conceive :)

Absolutely, but there is no evidence of a failure and the failure rate without a visible break is very low. I always encourage taking a test 21 days after sex for a definitive result. It’s important to balance the reality that nothing is 100% effective with the concurrent reality of the circumstances.

sex for 5 years with my boyfriend who pulls out and we’ve never had an issue - and if that makes you nervous then yay condoms! but the plan B wasn’t necessary and will likely cause more pain and discomfort than any sort of help
