Found this video the other day about weird methods of contraception throughout history. Some are pretty crazy and weird. Makes me really appreciate the options that we have now haha!

@tea I think there’s so much fear around an unintended pregnancy that it trumps the fear of STIs and people might not realise how important condoms are!

I 100% agree with @aunt_flo! I also feel like there is a bigger emphasis on avoiding pregnancy rather than STIs in sexual health education.

Love the video @catdog! So true @aunt_flo – hopefully we can get to a better balance in contraception education soon.
