We're starting the new year by dedicating an entire series to birth control. We were inspired to learn more about birth control since the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has only made it harder for women to access contraception.🥼
At the same time we also noticed a recent rise of telemedicine and birth control delivery services. 📬 Not to mention the political discussions around contraception including the Supreme Court decision in July of 2020 that upheld rules allowing companies to deny birth control coverage.
