Celebrate Thanks, Birth Control Day

Thanks, Birth Control Day is a reminder of how contraception gives people the freedom to control their own lives. In a time when reproductive rights are under attack, birth control remains a powerful tool for individuals to make informed decisions about their bodies and their futures.  

Beyond preventing pregnancy, birth control offers a range of other health benefits. It can regulate menstrual cycles, alleviate cramps, and reduce the likelihood of ectopic pregnancies. It can also improve acne, lessen the risk of endometrial and ovarian cancers, and help manage conditions like ovarian cysts, bone density loss, and iron deficiency. In other words, birth control is your all-in-one BFF!  

Through Planned Parenthood Direct, you can choose from many types of birth control, including: 

The Pill 

Birth control pills are a kind of medicine with hormones. They come in a pack, and you take 1 pill every day. The pill is safe and affordable, and it works best when taken at the same time every day. The pill is 93% effective with typical use. 

The Patch
