A Simple Solution To The Women’s Health Control Debate

Its fifth-period chemistry class and you're sitting next to your best friend. "pst do you have a tampon?" We have all been there, and we've all helped out. It's a simple gesture, and it goes a long way.

Women's health, in general, is not as simple as passing a tampon to your best friend. It has become a complicated issue with surrounding political debate. But sometimes you have to remove the complication.

So let's make this simple. These are some straight facts about a really great opportunity.

Birth Control. It is not just a pill that keeps a girl from getting pregnant. There is birth control for men and women. Here are two facts you should know.

1. It is easier to access male birth control than it is to access female birth control. Over 19 million women in the United States don't have good access to birth control. Viagra and condoms are available anywhere at any time.

2. Birth control isn't just to prevent pregnancy. It helps with all the symptoms that almost every girl suffers from, and it can help prevent ovarian cancer! It can prevent cancer!

So why are we making it so hard for women to be healthy? The answer to that question isn't easy. We are keeping this simple.

So how can we make it easier for women to be healthy? Much better, thank you for asking.

My friend just told me about this simple solution and I think it's something more people should be looking into. Simple Health is a telemedicine company that is using technology to deliver affordable and convenient care to those who need it. Right now they're getting ready to launch a life-changing new service: online birth control prescriptions and delivery.

You want simple? How about fair costs and convenience. Here is where you can sign up: signup.simplehealth.com.

And remember when you gave your best friend a tampon? Here's an even easier way to help out women. When you sign up, you can use your link to refer friends. For every sign-up, Simple Health will be donating birth control prescriptions to uninsured women. It's that simple.

With so many complications surrounding this issue, let's come together to support our sisters who want to be healthy. It's easier than giving your best friend a tampon.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
