There are so many reasons to use and love birth control. The reason Thank You, Birth Control Day is our favorite day of the year is to hear YOUR reasons. Here are just a few of them from this year’s festival:
1. For its gender euphoria
I currently have a copper IUD, the only long-acting non-hormonal form of birth control.
It gave me the power to control 12 years of my life without fear of an unwanted pregnancy, while enjoying my body in moments of sexual euphoria.#ThxBirthControl pic.twitter.com/028JF5COaT— Jasper Aura (he/she) Δ (@jasper_aura) November 16, 2022
2. So we can do the things we want
Because of my IUD, I know I’m not pregnant in May when it’s time to go to #TSTheErasTour! 🎉 #ThxBirthControl #ThxIUD pic.twitter.com/H8q5fwjwsS

3. Because good sex is a good cause
Yes, some people use contraception for endometriosis or to manage their periods. That’s valid. And some people want to have great sex and not get pregnant. That’s also beyond valid! (And so much fun) #thxbirthcontrol pic.twitter.com/BVzJJKC7kF

4. To help us manage medical conditions
this is #ThxBirthControl Sun! As a hemophiliac, regulating blood flow where I can is essential to my treatment and the hormonal IUD does that. Thank you Mirena for your service 🫡

7. To live our best hot girl without getting pregnant
