How do you gals feel about something like this? This hasn't gone through clinical trials so still early stages.

I had such bad reactions to the Mirena IUD and minipill, I've been on the oral combo BC since then. I wish I didn't need hormones but they help with heavy/painful periods (even skipping them), birth control, and the estrogen helps with acne. I'm not sure if I can give myself a shot 😬 I'm pretty squeamish around needles and bad with pain.

The technology uses tiny crystals to achieve both long-term effectiveness and the convenience of injections.

Looks cool.

At first glance it looks like a development of the tech Bill Gates used to get Microchips into people during COVID.

I knew that guy was onto something.

There was a lot of fear mongering with the covid vaccine, I don't know why people were so afraid of having free 5G WiFi everywhere you go. I've had a couple of boosters so I can stay connected wherever I am.

I love having free 5G WiFi everywhere! The only issue is crowds gathering around me trying to connect to it. I wish Bill Gates could've included password protection...
