Let's dive into one of the great joys of being a woman: Birth control! We are joined by Dr. Sarah Hill, evolutionary psychologist and author of the book This is Your Brain on Birth Control, to discuss our menstrual cycles and all the ways we are affected by birth control. We're getting an education in all things hormones, PMS, sex drive, the way we pick partners when we're on birth control vs. off, whether birth control affects fertility, how to choose what's best for your body, and more. Before Sarah joins us, we're discussing female-led proposals and how soon to program someone into your phone. Enjoy!
