For tons of people in committed relationships, the woman takes the pill and they don't use condoms. This just lets the guy do it instead (or in addition, if you want to be extra safe). I'm truly not following what's hard to understand about it.
- endisneigh 5y agoI didn’t realize people still took pills in committed relationships. My doc friends said a copper iud is pretty much the gold standard. Thanks for the info.
- brimble 5y agoIUDs or injected, persistent "pills", yeah, I'm not sure literally taking a pill every day is as common as it once was now that they can inject something that lasts months and doesn't require remembering to take it, but some form of drug-based contraception is still fairly common (among the ones not using IUDs for whatever reason).
- jfengel 5y agoDaily pills are still quite common. The implants are not trivial projects; it's a lot more than just a jab, and takes a few days to recover from. IUDs are also very unpleasant to have put in. And some women like the level of control they get from taking the daily pill.
