How Does Birth Control Work?
🕑 Added 2024-05-29 06:20:23 +0000 UTCYou can think of the ovaries and testicles as little factories that produce eggs and sperm. The egg and the sperm can travel from their factories, meet up, and then implant into a cozy bed of tissue – that’s how pregnancy begins. But if you don’t want to get pregnant, there are a bunch of different ways to disrupt this process at basically every step along the way.
You can watch our latest video here on Patreon or on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T736Dwo3DQ4
The "Birth Control Methods" graphic at the end of the video is attached to this post (in Web 4K format and Printable format).

Thanks! Yep - the error in the chart was my bad. In translating the Cleveland Clinic data, I inadvertently added "ectopic pregnancy" as a potential complication to vasectomy - David

Loved this video. Such important info to have out there! I'm kind of insanely curious about the error in the charts due to the blur in the video and what called it to your attention.
