    Psst! 🗣 Birth control should be over-the-counter, pass it on.

        It should be free, but BCP isn’t without risk, especially blood clots. It should not be DIFFICULT to obtain though.

        100% agree. If OTC, people like me - if I didn’t know about my genetic mutation that makes me more likely to get blood clot — birth control could have killed me. Need medical care to be affordable + accessible + safe.

        Because it is the only way to be sure. At the end of the day, we are the one getting pregnant. Not sure I’d trust a man to take a daily médecine...

        I don't think it should be over the counter because some hormones may have adverse effects for some patients, so women should still talk to their gynecologists. However, birth control should be free and covered by insurance

        True but you can OD on tylenol and that’s over the counter. Same with alcohol. Talking to a gynaecologist seems like a good move regardless.
