    Saheli, a 'non-steroidal non-hormonal contraceptive pill'. Saheli dosage starts 1 pill per half-week for ... (?), then 1 pill weekly. Basically induce a brief, mini-menopause that stops when you stop the pills. saheliinfo.com/clinical-eviden

    Then! ONE-YEAR vaginal ring Annovera. Unlike monthly-ish vaginal rings, (medicines.org.uk/emc/product/6) this thicker vaginal ring holds enough for 13 cycles with one week bleeding breaks, or 12 if you skip periods. Think "buff NuvaRing". annoverahcp.com/

    Speaking of intra-uterine system / device options: the UK does several! We are no longer stuck with the larger, higher dose Mirena hIUS. mirena.co.uk/ I want the smaller, lower dose (but shorter duration) Jaydess fsrh.org/Public/Public/Documen or Kyleena. medicines.org.uk/emc/product/7

    (You can fit a non-hormonal IUD copper coil as emergency contraception, within 10 days of unprotected sex. Fitting it as regular birth control anytime otherwise is also fine, when not pregnant.) patient.info/sexual-health/lon

    Finally, vasectomy. New part is "I found multiple cases where doctors did their own vasectomies". This may be helpful for hesitant cis men and AMAB people to know. Vasectomies are reversible ("easily", according to a medical nerd friend, but obv different people's bodies respond to things in weird, cool ways, so everything depends). baus.org.uk/_userfiles/pages/f

    I am not a doctor. Even if I were, I am not YOUR doctor. I do not have access to your medical records.

  11. CW: Over the counter contraceptive: FDA news

    Well, we are having some good news!

    Unanimous decision: 17-0 vote on whether consumers can follow #Opill's packaging instructions and don't need a doctor to explain how to take a #contraceptive at the same time every day.

    Expect ungodly backlash from the forced pregnancy contingent, as this gives people who can get pregnant agency over their own bodies, and #Fascists can't have that.
