The risks of hormonal contraception may be small, but they are significant ✒️ Victoria_Spratt via ipaperviews
But, to contextualise that risk, depending on which hormonal contraception you’re taking the risk of a blood clot is betweenIndeed, a person is only pregnant for nine months at a time and, generally, not often many times in a row for years on end. But, people who use hormonal contraception take it or have it in their bodies every day, often for years at a time and, sometimes, throughout much of their early adult lives.
Everything in life is, as my mum has always warned me, a trade-off. “You can’t have it all,” particularly if you are a woman or a person with a uterus. And nowhere has that been truer in my experience than when it comes to contraception. If you want to have heteronormative sex without risking an unwanted or unplanned pregnancy, hormonal contraception – the combined pill, the progestogen-only pill, the hormonal IUD, the injection or the implant – is usually the default choice because it is more convenient than fumbling around for a condom and more reliable too.
The benefits of hormonal contraception must never be taken for granted. Reproductive autonomy was brought about by the early versions of the contraceptive pill in the 1960s and, with it, women’s sexual and economic liberation. For the first time, women were able to enjoy sex for pleasure and not procreation at the same time as entering the workforce and higher education in record numbers because they could control when or if they would enter motherhood.
