drugged on hormones lmao? birth control doesn’t have psychoactive effects, chill.
on condoms: stealthing is a thing, condoms break, and no single birth control method is 100%. not everyone can afford the risk of pregnancy by relying on a single layer of defense
Idk. My birth control triggered treatment resistant depression. Possible it could have happened anyway, but I didn’t struggle with any mental health issues before that. We tried all different kinds of birth control. My doctor certainly didn’t warn me about the risks for any of them.
I wasn’t even trying to be safe for sex, I just had chronic pain. No pain meds ever offered. Just birth control suggested from early in my adolescence. When I finally eventually started birth control it didn’t fix my pain and I ended up leaving college and my life fell off the rails for years. Major depression is no joke.
Hormones most definetely effect the psyche. There is a lot of women who have strong psychological side effects from hormonal birth control.
Denying and downplaying these, like this post seems to advocate for, is not in the interest of anyone except the companies selling the drugs and men who think they are entitled to rawdog without consequences.
