What I Really Think About The Pill

The pill was an amazing invention that changed society, took away the burden of biology from women, and furthered the feminist cause. Our society probably wouldn’t be where it is today if it weren’t for the pill, and I am grateful for that.

But it’s not all rainbows and unicorns. There are some undeniable negative aspects of the pill and the industry surrounding it. So, what do I really think of the pill? How do I balance the good with the bad?

Fertility Awareness And HIV

Today (December 1) is World AIDS Day. A day to remember that people around the world are still living with HIV and still dying from AIDS-related illnesses.

How is HIV related to fertility awareness? All women have decisions to make regarding contraception, planning for pregnancy, being sexual with their partners, and their relationship with their bodies, and these are all impacted by living with HIV.

What Is Fertility Awareness?

So what is the fertility awareness method (FAM) and why am I so excited about it?

At its most basic level, fertility awareness is a form of body literacy (reading your body) so that you can understand your fertility. This means that you will understand when you are fertile (able to get pregnant) and infertile through each menstrual cycle (it’s only a few days around ovulation and I can teach you how to know when these days are!). By knowing this you will have a more complete picture of your health, because you will understand your hormonal balance and what’s going on inside your body every day.

What can you get out of this? Why should you bother with fertility awareness?
