Rather pill, intrauterine device, natural method, implant or condoms… The means of contraception are more and more numerous and each person to find the one which will suit him best. However, a few years ago, we wondered much less. The pill was widely acclaimed by women, a symbol of their freedom to control their desire, or not, to have a child.
But the scandal of the third and fourth generation pills went through this. The return to the natural also, whether in its diet, in the way of taking care of oneself, of taking care of oneself and therefore of managing one’s contraception. According to INED, in 2010, half of women using contraception took the pill, whereas they were only 41% in 2013.
Having become a real subject of reflection and discussion, the choice of the contraceptive method is also increasingly mentioned by personalities. A brief overview of those who have spoken on the subject.
— Justin Chambers : Contraception is not just a female subject (or shouldn’t be anyway). Married for 26 years, father of five children, Dr. Karev of “Grey’s Anatomy” took matters into his own hands by performing a vasectomy, the definitive method of male birth control that cuts and blocks the vas deferens that carry sperm from the testes.
– Kim Kardashian and her sisters: At the Kardashians, we are fans of the contraceptive pill! Kim Kardashian has been taking it since she was 14 and when her little sister, Khloé Kardashian, wanted to have a child, her first instinct was obviously… to stop the pill.

— Katy Perry : It was already 10 years ago… In 2009, then 24 years old, the singer did not want above all, but then especially not to get pregnant. “I love being in love, the idea of getting married and having kids too, but not at the moment.

— Stefi Celma: For the star of the series “Ten percent“, The pill is finished! Her best friend is one of the victims of the 3rd generation pill scandal, as she explained in an interview with “Paris Match”. Sofia Gon’s was a singer, and she died in 2011, at the age of 25, after suffering from a pulmonary embolism. “I didn’t know which pill she was using.

See this post on InstagramI was filming a video for next Saturday when I collapsed in front of my mirror for the 10th time since the start of the month. . I have been suffering from hormonal acne for more than 5 years now, and since I stopped taking the pill to no longer be on hormone, my body decides to take back its rights, it’s getting worse and worse, my PCOS makes everything worse, and it eats me up. . It pisses me off to hear that I should learn to wash my face. It pisses me off to hear that I should stop wearing makeup. It pisses me off to hear that I’m a paint bucket because I’m disgusting underneath. It pisses me off to hear that I’m stupid never to have done roaccutane. It bugs me to see people staring at me in the street when I’m not wearing makeup. . Acne is not a choice. Nobody chooses to have this. No one realizes what it feels like not to want to meet your face in the mirror anymore. No one knows what it feels like to wake up crying with rage that I can’t lay my face on a pillow without it hurting. I always say that you can’t judge what you don’t know, and I think so even more since I have acne. . So here, my name is Marie, I’m 24 years old, and after 5 years of testing products and treatments of all kinds (gluten-free, sugar-free, lactose-free diet. Antibiotic, zinc, tetralisal treatment, j ‘ve tried everything except roaccutane.) i still suffer from hormonal acne and hate it. . I took my courage in both hands to post these photos, because I’m fed up with hiding and I want you to be able to recognize yourself in me if you too have a complex that eats up your life. It’s me, it’s my skin, I’m like that, I can’t help it. And I’m going to have to learn to live with it until I find a solution that works for me that is a natural one. . Someone convinced me to do this post to free myself from it all, and it is with a heavy heart that I press the “share” button, but if it can help me to take charge a little more every day, so I do. ♡. #ONVEUTDUVRAI
