For more than just babies

Because cancer prevention is pretty important...and sex obviously!

For making getting a degree bearable

Access for all

Because no one should have to live with endometriosis pain

PCOS control for the win! 

More cancer prevention 

Birth control is family planning  

 Because we can have control of our bodies 

 For not just physical health

 Because our hormones can cause us to do some pretty crazy shit

 For reducing teen pregnancy...IN HALF 

 Thank you, Margaret Sanger 

 Because you can't stop one without providing the other

 Because EVERYONE should have the option, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, etc. 

 Because we need doctors 

 YES!
