What Sex-Ed Didn't Teach You About Birth Control | Ep. 19
IF your high school offered any kind of comprehensive sex-ed, they probably talked about birth control using scare tactics: how to prevent from scary STIs and expensive unwanted pregnancies. Well, there's actually a lot of information that people never learn, including the dark history of birth control, why some methods aren't as effective as you think, and how side effects can impact your sex life. I cover all of that and more in this episode (plus a few ranty personal stories about the US Healthcare System, oops). Think of it like "Birth Control for Dummies," except you're not dummies, our education system just sucks :)
