Why Is TikTok Telling Women To Stop Taking The Pill?

The Quicky - Un pódcast de Mamamia Podcasts

Have you heard of 'Birth Control Tik Tok?' It's the side of TikTok showing influencers promoting "natural" birth control and encouraging women to stop taking hormonal contraceptives.  There's varying degrees of scientific accuracy in their claims - and theories that they are playing into the global shift towards right wing politics that is starting to limit women's control over their own bodies.  In this episode of The Quicky, we look into why some people are demonising the pill and if hormonal contraception is really the enemy.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?
