Talked about birth control today. Basically, part of being a medical student is the fact that we get the high-school health talk about every year, and at a slightly higher level of complexity each time. And less taking out a sheet of looseleaf paper and making a list of five reasons why abstinence is the best for me.
I've come to the belief that there are too many birth control options. "Blah blah blah, choice, blah blah -" Unimpressed. People don't need 16 options for their blood pressure medication, they need a few that work. Birth control isn't that different. I am unsurprised that they stopped manufacturing the sponge in 2009, and that the Oby/Gyney giving the lecture hadn't fit a diaphragm in years. I mean, how can either of those compete with the sleek stylings of NuvaRing in the category of 'things you put in your vagina'?
