We have the long-awaited Dr. Jolene Brighten in the studio to break down what’s normal (and not normal) when it comes to birth control and our bodies. We’re covering menstrual cycles, how birth control affects our sex drive and lubrication, the fertility awareness method, Plan B, and even “whisky vagina.” Jolene also explains how to get off the pill and how to optimize your health both on and off the pill. Before she joins us, we discuss our own birth control methods (and Ashley has a big update). Enjoy!
