Episode 3: Hormonal Birth Control - The Ultimate Frenemy?

Happy Belated International Women's Day, gals (and lads).

This week, we chat about hormonal contraception - the good parts, the bad parts and the nasty parts. Do we know enough about what we put in our bodies, and why is birth control mostly a women's responsibility?

Before recording, we asked our listeners to share their experiences too, which we discuss on the show. 

 

Disclaimer: We're not doctors. Everything on this episode is solely based on personal experiences. You're better off chatting with your GP if you're having any issues with birth control.
