Description

Welcome back to PBPP, friends!

In this third and final episode in our series on birth control, we're talking about alternatives to hormonal contraceptives, specifically natural birth control methods.

I'm breaking down what natural birth control is--as well as what it isn't because a lot of people have the wrong idea about it!--why more healthcare practitioners aren't talking to their patients about natural birth control options, and how fertility awareness for birth control actually works.

If you've ever been on hormonal contraceptives and had a bad experience, or if you're just looking for a natural alternative that doesn't pose potential risks to your health and future fertility, this episode is for you!

Show notes:

Natural birth control apps mentioned in the episode, Kindara and Natural Cycles
