'Why are we focusing on enabling women not to get pregnant every year instead of focusing on asthma medication?' Is a ludicrous question.

If cover for asthma medication is lacking, you can address that without arguing that not being pregnant all the time isn't a health boon.

Of course, a lot of the disapproval for inclusion of birth control is the fear that it enables unmarried people to have lots of casual sex.

Even if this wasn't a shitty reason to oppose it, I'm not at all sure it's true. When having lots of casual sex, what you need is condoms.

Among my friends, anyway, the time to go on the pill is when you're in an exclusive long term relationship. Like marriage.

The pill is actually necessary for my health. Have been off it for a few years and been in a lot of pain. Lots of unawareness re: pill

Also I think sometimes, like for my condition (PCOS) IVF clinics actually use the pill to help a woman’s hormones reach normal levels...

Yes. I have that too and was recommended the pill but it made me feel ill. Fortunately no symptoms apart from irregular periods which I like

Agreed! I have a few more symptoms but meh. My oestrogen is extremely low so the pill would help. Counter effect is it’ll feel weird...

As when I take the combi pill, I start to feel emotional, and I’m very unused to that.

Yes, I was much more moody than with PMT & I just couldn't handle that. Also, headaches.
