Whether you’re considering preventing an unintended pregnancy, or thinking about fertility care, contraception is an important topic for many people. In this blog, we will explore how you can self-manage both #contraception and #fertility: https://t.co/fDfpuvUtu6
Ahead of tomorrow's #WorldSexualHealthDay, we're here to help you understand some of the more common STIs (including gonorrhoea, chlamydia, and HIV) and their symptoms, treatment, and prevention. Take a look! 🦠👇 https://t.co/TydNc6EDOF
Health clinics provide vital information on modern contraception options so women can make decisions about their bodies. Yet many communities still lack access.🚩
The right to information, to healthcare, to choose is crucial. So #SheDecides without question. 🚺 #Choice
Over 35% of pregnancies in Europe are considered unplanned.
LARCs are the most effective contraceptives to avoid pregnancy, but they are often the most expensive option.
Governments can reduce barriers to full contraceptive choice by providing reimbursement. #ContraceptionAtlas
You want to know how your country is performing in the field of contraception, counseling and online information? Have a look at our brand new #ContraceptiveAtlas - it provides evidence & ideas how to improve accessibility & quality of #srhr services.
Today, @SophieintVeld and me hosted the launch of the #ContraceptionAtlas from @EPF_SRR.
Do use it as a research tool.
It speaks volumes (for Poland a new category had to be introduced).

Thinking of a tweet that reflects dutch activists’ internal conflict seeing this: proud on being #4 while Belgium, our lovely neighbours but also the butt of many Dutch jokes, is taking the #1 spot! Enough of a motivation for NL policymakers to step up. 😂 #SRHR#friendlybanter
This map gives me a mixed feeling... being an Italian living in Belgium:
✔️so proud to live in 🇧🇪 🥇!
✖️come on 🇮🇹 , let's improve in 2021!!!

🎉🇧🇪Ministre @karinelalieux félicite que la Belgique occupe la première place du #ContraceptionAtlas.
« J'espère qu'on servira d’exemple à de nombreux autres pays parce que la contraception est un élément essentiel des droits des femmes à disposer de leur propre corps. »
To prevent unintended pregnancies, governments need to update their reimbursement schemes so that EVERYONE is eligible & the most effective, yet financially inaccessible contraceptives are adequately covered.
Several European countries are doing just that!

➡️Es zeigt sich, dass die #Schweiz im europäischen Vergleich nach wie vor Aufholbedarf hat!
@EPF_SRR
EU citizens have the wrong impression contraception related issues are all solved. The Atlas shows it’s not the case: it is still a struggle to have access to contraception. Politicians must continue the fight says @TerryReintke#ContraceptionAtlas@EPF_SRR
Although nearly 56% of European women of child-bearing age use a form of contraception, 35% of pregnancies in Europe are considered as unplanned. Just released, this year's #ContraceptionAtlas from

#PressRelease: 2020 #ContraceptionAtlas reveals yet another uneven picture across Europe - inequitable reimbursement schemes & failure of governments to provide accessible, accurate information impedes access to the latest & widest choice of contraception. https://t.co/HJNbBfdSKs
