Bra shame in grade school, period shame in middle school,pad shame in high school,and contraception shame in college,I just want to ask, why must girls go through all this?!Body shame yet folks always gossip,which all winds up as body shame that traps girls.too scared to openly pull out a sanitary pad,too shy to speak freely of their period woes,and even more so,too afraid to face scientific ways to protect themselves.And among all stigmatized female health products,none are more shunned or misunderstood, than the short acting contraceptive pill.be it teachers or parents, all shy away from it,never even mentioning it.The more we stay silent,the deeper the biases take root!Since few care to explain it objectively,let us dive in and talk about it today!Today, we spotlight the short acting contraceptive pill—the one most misunderstood.In fact, the short acting contraceptive pill, is one of the standard, science backed birth control methods, recommended by the World Health Organization .
For healthy, fertile women seeking birth control,the short acting contraceptive pill is, in fact,a combo of low dose estrogen and progestogen.Common ingredients are the progestin drospirenone, and the estrogen, Ethinyl Estradiol.Do not panic just hearing the word hormones —estrogen and progestogen are not the glucocorticoid, most folks fear.Rather, the progestin drospirenone, in short acting contraceptive pills, is a fourth generation progestin, that mimics a woman’s natural progesterone.Four, Compared to other birth control methods,the short acting contraceptive pill’s mechanism, is more direct.Via low dose estrogen and progestogen working together,it suppresses our body’s ovulation.and by thickening cervical mucus, to stop sperm from penetrating the cervix, and entering the uterus.Even if some slip through,the short acting contraceptive pill, will disrupt the Fallopian tube’s normal, ciliary beating and peristaltic frequency.to slow the transit of sperm and eggs,lessening the odds they would meet.
Plus, it keeps the endometrium at a healthy, thin level,so the uterus will not provide a suitable spot, for a fertilized egg to implant.When taken correctly and regularly,the short acting contraceptive pill’s efficacy, can reach ninety nine point seven percent.Long term, regular use can also help ease dysmenorrhea, and regulate the Menstrual cycle.Many folks hear contraception, and think the short acting contraceptive pill, has just one use, but that is not true at all.It boasts a scientific mechanism, that regulates female hormone levels.So, while it prevents pregnancy,it can also do many other things, like regulating a chaotic menstrual cycle, or easing that dysmenorrhea so painful you sweat each month.and clear up that stubborn, recurring hormonal acne, on your chin and jawline.ease those P M S mood swings, where you just break down and cry for no reason, those few days each month,or help treat gynecological ailments, like P C O S that severely impact daily life.But let me be clear,
none of these uses is more noble or more valid than another.Some take it to treat ailments,some, for birth control, and some, for both.All these cases are on equal footing.Whatever the reason for choosing it,a woman making decisions for her own body, deserves respect in and of itself.No excuses needed, nor any shame felt for it.But what is reality?Just because its name has birth control in it.Many girls have to take it on the sly,endure odd stares and baseless blame,and feel ashamed for merely using a drug properly.Why?! Who is enabling them to equate, taking a contraceptive pill, with lacking self respect?!In fact, the short acting contraceptive pill, is one of the most effective,routine birth control methods humanity has devised,and in many nations worldwide, it is a go to choice for women.We should not hold any biases against it,nor should we judge others with phrases, like, a girl who takes a contraceptive pill lacks self love, especially when she is getting to know her own body.
Making informed, autonomous choices, that I T S E L F is loving yourself.But the short acting contraceptive pill, has clear contraindications, not all women can use it.For instance, women who smoke twenty or more cigarettes daily,or those with a history of thrombosis, or breast related ailments,should not take it.So never, ever buy meds and take them on your own!whether you wish to use it for birth control,to regulate your period, clear up acne, or ease P M S.we should all first head to a proper hospital, to see a doctor, get screened for contraindications,and then take the meds as prescribed.I hope today’s share helps you all,and I wish all my sisters can shed that needless shame, and embrace confidence and ease with your own bodies.
