There’s no denying that birth control has given women greater freedom and control over their fertility. However, many young girls and women have been on birth control for decades without fully understanding the long-term effects of hormone-altering medication. Today’s guest shares her research on birth control and provides key insights into its potential impact on long-term health and wellness.

Dr. Hill shares her personal journey with birth control and how it led her to research this topic. She reveals what her findings say about the long-term effects of birth control on the brain and explores alternative options for women.
