It’s small, but it had- and continues to have, and huge impact.

The Birth Control Pill!

Whoah!

What to say that hasn’t been said?

Here’s something you might not have known:


Apparently:


“Thinylestradiol, the synthetic estrogen used in combined hormonal contraceptives, is excreted in the urine of women users. Sewage treatment processes do not remove these chemicals, and they are discharged into the water system. This form of pollution has been proven to have reproductive and other effects on aquatic organisms, including fish, frogs, and zooplankton. Feminization of male fish, even to the point of producing eggs, is one common effect. Both male and female fish experience delays in reproductive development, and changes are seen in their kidneys and livers.”

But there is a lot of controversy around the birth control pill.

It’s not surprising, as it is a drug that has to do with SEX.

It can be hard to remember.


“Many women occasionally forget to take the Pill daily, impairing its effectiveness. Correct use of the pill usually implies taking it every day at the same hour for 21 days, followed by a pause of seven days.”
