Misinformation spreading online about the contraceptive pill is leading to a rise in unplanned pregnancies and abortions, according to the Faculty for Sexual Reproductive Healthcare. One of these myths is that being on the pill makes you more attracted to your partner, and that when you come off of it you may stop feeling sexual attraction towards that person. Woman’s health writer and life coach Maisie Hill recently made similar claims, saying that women should stop taking the pill before deciding who to marry as it can change who they are attracted to. Recent research has found no correlation, and previous smaller studies that are cited online have been criticised for using small sample sizes and non-representative populations. #thepill #pill #contraceptivepill
