There are many other birth control options besides the pill that you don't have to remember everyday. The Ortho Evra patch you change every week, the Nuva Ring you change every 3 weeks, and there are two different types of injectable contraceptives, one that lasts 2 months, Nuristerat, and Depo Provera that lasts 3 months. The Implanon implant lasts for 3 years, the Mirena IUD lasts for 5 years and the ParaGuard copper IUD is completely hormone free and lasts for 8 to 10 years, so people really need to stop making all birth control out to be horrible when they've only tried one or two methods. I don't mean every single women should just be on birth control just because, I'm talking about those who actively refuse to try a method of BC when they are experiencing gyneacological issues, e.g painful or heavy periods, they would rather want the strongest pain killers available rather than use the pill. By the way, people who are diabetic have to take insulin everyday or they die. Remembering a birth control pill shouldn't be difficult if there are grave consequenses to forgetting one. Like, say, a child? I'm not at all expecting every single female to go on birth control but for the love of god, don't complain about painful periods or bad acne and then in the same sentence say 'all those hormones are bad for you' because incase everyone hasn't noticed, in some cases it actually saves lives. Heavy uterine bleeding can cause serious problems and if you battle with it from adolescence like I did your options are surgery, or birth control. I'm not forcing anything on anyone but simply asking birth control gets its due credit and people stop avoiding it like its aids or some shit.
People who reject modern medicine infuriate me?
