I guess it depends what pack and what pill you get.

And they're not all $25, just the ones listed on the PBS.

So if you're on a more expensive one, it's more expensive.

But I guess the long-term cost-wise, the IUD is more cost-effective.

There's no upkeep.

You don't really have to do anything.

It's just that upfront cost that can be a lot.

Yeah, but I guess the other thing when we think about cost, so that is the financial cost.

when you're thinking about, yeah, what contraceptive method you want to do.

You don't need to go to your GP.
