In our recent survey of women ages 35-64, we found particularly interesting results regarding oral contraception, menopause and hormone therapy.<\/p>\n

Turns out, more than half of respondents are on (or have tried) birth control pills, and finding the right pill can be a real-life Goldilocks situation \u2014 it can take a few tries to find the right solution.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s more on the key findings from our survey: <\/p>\n

Half of respondents have tried between two and four different birth control pills<\/h3>\n

More younger respondents (61%) reported trying between two and four birth control pills compared to 39% of respondents ages 55-64.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

When switching birth control brands or products, women listened to their healthcare providers (HPCs) the most<\/h3>\n

Another reason for making a switch? Fewer physical side effects.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

68% said they use birth control pills to prevent pregnancy
<\/h3>\n

Younger respondents also chose birth control pills to help with acne and PMS.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

HCPs are the No. 1 resource for women seeking advice about menopause \u2026<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s nice to see conversations with a professional taking the top spot. The internet is still popular: Thirty-nine percent of respondents ages 45-54 and 31% of respondents ages 55-64 get information about menopause through online search engines.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

\u2026 However more than a quarter of respondents had to initiate the conversation about the stages of menopause with their HCP<\/h3>\n

Thirty-four percent of respondents ages 45-54 said they had a conversation when they brought up menopause.<\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Participation in hormone therapy is low overall<\/h3>\n

Only 8% of respondents currently take hormone therapy. Of those, 61% prefer to take a pill vs. gel or cream foam. <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

Plant-based products for hormone therapy are preferred
<\/h3>\n

Of the respondents on hormone therapy, 42% would choose a plant-based product.<\/p>\n
