Long Term Side Effects on Birth Control Pills- Does it Cause Divorce?

Women are beginning to wake up to the lies they’ve been sold about birth control. Doctors sold it to us as a “risk-free” way to guarantee we wouldn’t get pregnant until we were ready to have a baby. Well, even after going off birth control pills, many women aren’t able to get pregnant.

Sadly, birth control pills have been found to cause hormonal imbalances, cancer, and even divorce due to the effect it has on women’s ability to choose the right partner.

I mean, think about it, we are taking artificial hormones that convince our bodies that it’s pregnant so that we don’t ovulate and don’t have a menstrual cycle. How would that NOT mess with our hormones and future ability to get pregnant?

We are turning off the natural rhythms that make us women.

Long-term side effects of birth control include:

Birth control and divorce rates 

One study found that women on birth control became less attracted to their chosen partners after going off birth control.

While on birth control, when their body thought they were pregnant, women tended to pick a partner who was most similar to their family. They wanted someone nurturing and supportive.

However, when your body doesn’t think it’s pregnant, or when you’re ovulating, women tend to choose someone who complements their genetics well.

This makes total sense from an evolutionary perspective. When women are fertile, they want to mate with a man who will help them produce the most viable offspring. This gives the baby the highest chance of survival.

When women are pregnant, they aren’t necessarily looking for someone who will create a genetically strong child, but someone who will support the family.

While both are important in today’s day and age, we need to trust nature to let our natural mating instincts play out in the way they are meant to.

Birth control is unnatural and hijacking the natural mechanisms that help us women choose a solid life partner. No wonder why divorce rates are steadily increasing!
