Have you ever read your birth control packaging?

Contributor: Zandrock Zandrock
Just curious. Have you actually read your birth control packaging. This includes condoms, hormonal, everything.

I actually didnt look at a condom pack till after 2 months of first starting sexual activity. I had good education and was doing it right, but was just interested if anyone has never read the package recommendations.

I tend to read instructions on everything. I have even read the condom inserts why? I don't know cause I am curious on somethings but the condom job isn't up to me its up the male partner to make sure its on right

I always read that stuff. That's just how I am. I read the labels on everything! I've probably read all the labels in the bathroom too. I just like to know everything.

I always read the packaging for any new medications that I put into my body, but that is also because from a young age I was taking a lot of different ones. I never wanted negative reactions because doctors don't always tell you when two meds might counteract one another or cause complications. I've experienced this on more than one occasion, so I'm very thorough now

I always read everything the pharmacist gives me. I want to know exactly what might happen and what I shouldn't do while on the medication. Plus, Dr's and pharmacists don't catch everything. I've been prescribed something that didn't mix with other medications, so I had to call the Dr right away.

It drives me nuts when women don't know if they're on a combination birth control or progestin only. I always ask a million questions and I read everything. I have paragard now (non hormonal iud) but I always knew what I was taking, and I have definitely read condom boxes before.

When I was using it I did read it from front to back. I need to know what I'm taking.

Yes. I read everything on the packaging several times before I even started taking it.
