 What should go wrong preventing a womans body from ovulating every month with hormones…. Fuck this pill. I wasn’t myself during that time.

 Hmm, maybe.. it blocks her natural senses…. I’m tired too, observing that on most of my female friends….
But believe me, not every woman is interested in that. But there is so much education needed. We SIMPLY don’t know!!! Nobody telling us about it !! This is shocking. And since it’s the average, many women don’t care because it kinda works. 
Oh you have pain? Take the pill
Oh you have an unregular cycle? Take the pill
Oh you just don’t want to be pregnant? Take the pill before you find out that there are only about 5 days you actually can get pregnant in a cycle. 
Who needs awareness & holistic approaches. 
That topic hits different.

 I know women who got on it with 15 to help with acne. 🥴 They're about to go through menopause and they're still on it.

My women's doctor keeps warning me that I'm being irresponsible, not being on hormonal birth control. Yo, I've been married for 2 decades and we have kids. I think he's not going to run away in  shock, if I get pregnant. 😂

The whole birth control discussion gets weirder and weirder, the older you are.
