What are you talking about? There is no estrogen component to IUD's like Mirena, nor any estrogen in Depo Provera (the shot). In fact, the Paragard IUD is completely hormone free.
Sorry, I meant to include progestin levels as well. The higher levels of progestin increases your risk of DVT as well.

These ideas are comical. A very real issue for this country and many European countries is a declining birthrate. Hispanics are the only race in the US with a high enough fertility rate to grow their population.
In many ways the US economy is built on the supposition that there will be more people tomorrow that there is today. If the borders are shut down and fertility rates do not rise, the model will fall apart.
I understand this thread is only meant to discourage pregnancies that are a drag on society, but there is also something to be said for the sheer volume of chikdren that need to be born to sustain society as we know it.

With the current population level in our country today, if this decline in birth rates keeps at this pace, how many years before this ACTUALLY becomes a problem? You have to be talking 100s of years, huh?

Try 30 or so. It is essentially a ponzi scheme that requires more workers coming into the system than there are workers going out of the system. The population can still grow for quite some time if fertility rates dip below 2.1 or so, mainly due to increased life expectancy, but it's a problem that is incredibly difficult to reverse once it begins.

you can't legislate morality.
the lowest moral people will bring down everyone else to their level.

This isn't Nazi Germany. Sometimes it's not worth giving up all of your freedoms in order to try to accomplish a goal and/or control something.
Our forefathers fought so that we could enjoy the freedoms that human beings deserve, but that so few human beings actally have.

Are there any studies on long term use of birth control? I know doctors say once you're off you can get pregnant. But it seems today there are many women who struggle to get pregnant. I know several that have been trying to get pregnant for almost a year. Most of them (maybe all) have been on birth control since they were early teens.
Now as for as mandatory birth control I am against it. I believe in personal choice. And I believe parents need to raise their kids to make wise decisions.

I have some minding your own business thoughts.
