Let’s talk birth control. When I was about 18 I got on the pill. I wasn’t sexually active but I thought it would help me with my acne. I didn’t ever reconsider my birth control options for at least a decade. A couple years ago I decided that I really needed to reexamine everything in my life that was on auto pilot and make sure that it was still the best thing for me. I discovered the IUD which can be inserted in one quick appointment and last from 3-10 years. Mine was covered by insurance. It got a bad rap back in the 80s due to a faulty device on the market but that has long since been re-engineered. There’s also no user error. With the pill, you need to take it at the same time every day. That gets tricky when you are crossing time zones and an international date line. The contraceptive methods with the highest efficacy are implants, IUDS and sterilization. Implants and IUDS are long acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods. If you and/or your partner haven’t reconsidered birth control options in awhile perhaps it’s time to take a look.
