Such a lovely surprise to see your face, dear reader! Of course, it’s just via a computer screen like everything else nowadays with COVID-19 causing us to hunker down in our homes. Raise your hand if the only Vitamin D you are getting right now is from your computer’s blue light rays ?‍♀️

Anyways, for those of you who are on birth control — or looking to start taking it — now is a great time to consider getting birth control in your mailbox. It’s unsafe and time-consuming to go to a pharmacy given the current infectious circumstances so #SkiptheTrip to the pharmacy and get your birth control sent to your house with FREE delivery, automatic refills, and goodies like tea, hi-chews, chocolate and much more!

Still need more convincing?

Let’s be honest — no one enjoys wearing those suffocating N95 masks, surgical masks, or homemade masks no matter how effective they may be, so might as well avoid lining up at the pharmacy as much as possible!

Being A Mom During COVID-19

Plus, if you are sheltering at home with your S.O., you’re probably engaging in that same activity at least once a week… if ya know what I mean. If you find yourself sexually active during this time without the intention of getting pregnant, it is imperative that you start taking birth control.

Doctor visits are not recommended during this outbreak if it’s a non-emergency situation; getting checkups is risky and a lot of hassle so better to avoid places where germs can be spread easily. But, fear not! Pandia Health offers online doctor’s consultations for prescriptions for the ring, patch, and all brands of the birth control pill, so you can choose the method that works best for you!

For all the moms out there, this is an especially weird time — you’re probably enjoying more special moments with your children while simultaneously ripping your hair out because they’re annoying the crap out of you, right?
