No discussion on one of the more common side-effects of hormonal birth control, the potential severe loss of libido? That seems like kind of an important thing to bring up.
Sandra mentioned that she had trouble explaining how copper IUD’s worked. IO9 has a really handy explanation and video explaining how copper IUD’s work. I found it very informative.

lol, Dave whipping that sperm around and Sandra confiscating it then having the rest of the episode weirdly quiet and serious…. hehe Dave’s in trouble. Fun one and still informative.
Another great episode. One thing I’ve always wondered, what are the STI concerns when dealing only with genitals and hands?
When you were talking about male contraceptives, I immediately thought of this http://i.imgur.com/dhLaa.jpg
Great episode!
Ionized copper isn’t yet in a molecule already, but it sure wants to be.
One wonders about the severity of the anti-contraception forces in the US right now, who want bans on such things as the “morning-after” (or week after) pills…and probably on copper IUDs as well..
