My new bf refuses to use condom…calling it a non-negotiable deal breaker
My doctor assured me that using a menstrual cup with an IUD was fine; found out it is NOT fine!
ONLY pulling out?!
Ladies..Theybies and Gents You do NOT need Plan B if you take/use your birth control correctly.
Someone said my IUD rejected bc I’m a whore 😭
Why do people just "Plan B and Pray"
my bf finshed inside me..
First time letting him…
Condom broke and he came inside me
Ex-wife got pregnant after having an iud, doctor said they found no sign of the iud and it must have fallen out. Can that actually happen? Or could my ex have had it removed (wouldn’t be her only deception)
