Birth control earrings now exist.
Yes, you read that right.
TBH remembering to take the pill every day is hard work.
So, chemists at the Georgia Institute of Technology in the US have created clip-on jewellery that has synthetic hormones.
The hormones pass through your earlobe and into the bloodstream.
OMG #SCIENCE.
“This is especially true for contraceptive hormones, which provide almost perfect prevention of pregnancy if used correctly, but have significant failure rates in typical use,” the institute wrote.
The earrings were created to make birth control more reliable for those who struggle with remembering to take the pill daily…
Guilty.
We don’t know when the earrings will be available in Australia but we definitely want to try a pair!
