Thank you for addressing the weight of the harms done in contraceptive history. Many minority women have remaining suspicions, and their concerns matter -- especially for those informed by cases like coerced contraception/sterilisation in disabled women and girls or by cases like the Depo Provera injection, which has a history of coercion and force within our lifetimes and can have negative ramifications like osteoporosis with extended use. I'm a bit surprised there were no extended mentions of the past Essure coils or the current non-hormonal IUDs like Paragard (10 years) and the new Miudella (3 years, but I do get time is limited, too. Thanks for being awesome!

I’d definitely be interested in taking a male birth control pill once a few more options have been perfected, but the thing I’m most concerned about is whether or not there’s a chance that it might permanently sterilize me, to the point where I could never have children even if I wanted to. Something that can be easily reversible like with female bc pills is the ideal for me.
I’m definitely curious about there being more male birth control options, so yeah that slow progress has been frustrating and unbearable, for many reasons.

One thing that isn't mentioned is that hormonal birth control puts women at higher risks of blood clots. I can't do hormonal birth control because I am already a high blood clot risk. Thankfully my husband got a vasectomy after we decided that we would stick with on kid.

I'm so very gratefull to crash course for mentioning the abuse of Puerto Rican women in this. I have several family members that were victims of this and nobody ever talks about it. Its still affecting many of us to this day.

Is it true that morning after pills are only effective up to a certain weight I've heard that before and would love to have it confirmed or denied by someone knowledgeable and not a reddit post.

I use the pill because I have irregular periods and blood clots. It’s a pain having to remember to take it but it really helps me out. I’ve been on it since I was 15 years old.

When my mom had me in her early 20's, she got a tubal ligation after. She had to have a psychiatric exam before they would do it to make sure she wouldn't regret it.

Hey. Y’all didn’t mention the Paraguard IUD. It’s no hormones. And kept me child free for 10 years with no hormonal side effects!

Sorry, the first over the counter birth control pill only came out in 2024 Like last year 2024 I had no idea it was that recent.
