Pregnancy and contraception have always been a controversial and tabooed topic, mostly what no one likes to talk about regardless of how important they are open.
Tanya Sweeney shares her personal experience with The Irish Times, by telling the tale of her doctor appointment where she requested the doctor for pregnancy preventions. According to her, the time when she found out her pregnancy results were positive, she was in an abiding relationship and no
way ready for parenthood.
Tanya Sweeney thought that the birth prevention process would be a simple one. Little did she know what was awaiting her. The doctor first recommended her a pregnancy test. The test was just for surety.
After some minutes of exasperation, the doctor confirmed that she was not pregnant. However, she was given instructions on how to have safe sex. The chambers of Women centers and surgeries were crowded by females who had some expressions of regrets on their faces, their restless fidgeting showing their remorse.
They were asked foolish and senseless questions leaving them even more uncomfortable. Nowadays, gladly, these issues are no more. The author couldn't understand if these weird questions were intentional, to provide them pregnancy preventions without devastation to their endocrine systems.
The writer was just being thoughtful about the team getting bored of being involved in asking the same questions repeatedly. How did the patients react to these queries? Of all the options present, the morning after pill stands out to be the most scandalous.
As growing up in a community where only a few people had a grip around the terms pregnancy and option, many of them think that the beginning of life is at conceiving. The author says that whenever she tweets something about contraception, she gets a bundle of messages on requests for further information about it and that is mainly from males.
Women are often left confused and clueless. They do not know which method works for them. They are left in a chaos of thoughts, and that's in literal term of failures of morality. On top of all this, the attitude of people in the surroundings is plain rude. A pregnancy which is unnecessary and unintentional is usually something that leaves the person in shame.
The less aged ladies are the only one to be judged, and they are very stressed out about society's behavior including the overall outcome.
