Finally some awareness is being paid to the potentially dire consequences of using chemical birth control. Unsuspecting young women subject themselves to the very harmful side effects of birth control every day because they trust the medical system to give them the best advice for their helath.

Unfortunately, this advice is not always in their best interest even if it does keep them form becoming pregnant prematurely. There are better ways of protecting yourself from pregnancy. It isn’t THAT hard.

You can only get pregnant when around ovulation and if you use condoms and dont have sex during your ovulatory phase, you nealry eliminate any chance of becoming pregnant. And the icing on the cake is that condms prevent most STDs!

I am glad there is some awareness on this issue being brought to light, I only wish it was more: http://vitals.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/12/08/9307469-fda-panel-add-stronger-warnings-to-birth-control-labels
