YOUR BODY, YOUR CHOICE

This collection is dedicated to sharing the stories of women and people who can become pregnant who’ve faced, and fought, resistance when seeking permanent birth control. By sharing these experiences, we hope to empower more people to speak out, demand change, and create a future where everyone’s choices are respected without hesitation or judgment.
