The Taboo Around Oral Contraceptives

Word associations are often used to illustrate a picture in our mind.

Feminine. Sensual. Independent.

Those are some words you may correlate to a few of your favorite female role models.

Promiscuous. Unfaithful. Cheap.

Regrettably throughout my pharmacy experience, I’ve heard these words spoken about these same role models…

Except the difference? They have chosen to take Oral Contraceptives (OC’s).
