rule #1: be kind
I feel like i could never trust this even if i was on it.
Would you trust it less than the female birth control pills?
No. But I also dont trust female birth control pills. I'm vaguely aware of the side effects and hormonal shifts, and I don't think I want that in my life.
The big point of this one is that it is not hormonal, and so far this study shows no side effects. So for a couple, it could be the pill with least side effects overall.
of course nothing is 100% effective, not even condoms. consider each an additional layer of security.
So i should triple wrap?
Sure, but is the additional security worth the sides? I could wear a medieval suit of armor around all day to be safer, but it would be extremely inconvenient.
That's the nice thing about having more contraceptive options on the market, you are more likely to find an option with minimal side effects for you and/or your partner.
I cant argue with this point
