5 reasons people use (and love) BC: ✅ To ease period flow & cramps ✅ To prevent pregnancy & STIs ✅ To have stress-free sex ✅ To control acne ✅ To treat a medical condition #ThxBirthControl
Birth control is basic health care. That's why I'm joining @powertodecide to speak up about access and say #ThxBirthControl: powertodecide.org/thxbirthcontrol
TODAY is the day to show the world why we’re so thankful for access to birth control. Snap a selfie and share why you say #ThxBirthControl
If you’re saying #ThxBirthControl today, consider giving the gift of access to someone in need. BCBenefits – a contraceptive access fund from @powertodecide – is helping folks overcome some of the most commonly-faced barriers to getting birth control: powertodecide.org/ProtectBC
