INTRODUCTION
When it comes to contraception and family planning, it’s important for us as women to understand our bodies, our options, and our rights. There’s a lot to consider, like the many contraception methods available, their pros and cons, our lifestyles and personal preferences.
So why are these crucial topics often hidden in textbooks? Why are we left feeling anxious, uninformed, or pressured by the expectations placed on us? It’s often just seen as a "normal" part of being a woman… right?
Not to us. WOMEN | Bayer believes that contraception starts with understanding our bodies, our options, and our rights before anything else.
