I am lucky enough to be joined today by OBGYN, NYT best selling author and content creator Dr Jen Gunter. Following recent discussions on the podcast about Lorde saying coming off the pill was the 'best drug' and an influx of anti-pill content online, I was feeling a little unsure if this was something I should still be taking. Dr Gunter answered all my questions - does it impact who we're attracted to? Do we need to be tracking period cycles? Can the pill alter our brains? Can it make us infertile if we're on it too long or bad at taking it? Do some pills make us 'crazier' than others? Is cycle tracking effective as contraception? Is anti-pill content right wing programming? <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drjengunter/">Dr Jen Gunter Socials</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bigsmalltalk_pod/">Big Small Talk Socials </a> <a href="https://www.hachette.com.au/dr-jennifer-gunter/">Dr Jen Gunter BOOKS</a> See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
