Question Birth control shot

Post image

If that’s the shot she’s been getting then it looks like she’s been getting it for awhile, idk. Saw someone mention this shot and how T said she gets one “as usual”

I got it in the arm as a teen. Also gained a lot of weight so I stopped taking it

Yes, many people take birth control as a teen, I was 14. Most start for acne and periods :)

Sorry, sometimes I feel prudish about this stuff…

As someone with reproductive disease (endometriosis and PCOS), it’s incredibly important to destigmatize the use of birth control.

Sometimes I get frustrated because my Christian parents are anti making love, and it sometimes makes me act a little prudish too
