    Creative video but I'm dissapointed that other side effects weren't at all addressed. It's vital to be aware of the fact that the hormones used in birth control really can mess with your mind and body, potentially causing side effects like depression, lowered sex drive, acne, and more. That's not to say people should be afraid to take it, because using at least one reliable contraception is essential. They just have to be ready to experiment, and know what pills work and what pills don't work for them by watching out for all sorts of changes in themselves.

      Mhm. Totally agree I'm on it and I get head aches sometimes but that's why we have doctors. We gotta make sure to tell people to check in with them if the affects last for to long (or hurt to much) so they can switch them out.

    can you just be on birth control and not use a condom! Isn’t that OK? Somebody told me when I was a kid at some point. But the point of the condoms is to stop the sperm. The point of the birth control is to stop the ovulation. But if I’m using condoms on top of birth control, doesn’t that just mean I am just trying not to get an STD? ty answer soon

    • @amazeorg
      @amazeorg  Рік тому +7

      Hi there, birth control helps prevent the chances of pregnancy but it does not protect people from the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Condoms protect people from the spread of STIs and chances of pregnancy. When birth control and condoms are used together, the chances of pregnancy and STI transmission are low. It's always best to use both!

      Hi there, it's best to start using birth control before beginning a sexual relationship. However, a person can begin using birth control at any time. It's important to remember to use additional barrier methods like condoms and dental dams.
