This week on In Her Season, we’re back with our second Round Table episode — an open, collaborative conversation exploring all things contraception.

Round Table episodes bring together clinical insight and lived experience in a shared discussion, creating space for nuance, questions, and real conversations about women’s health. Rather than a traditional interview, this format allows topics to unfold naturally, with evidence-based information grounded in the realities of women’s bodies and lives.

For this episode, we’re joined by Dr Lucy Haymes for an honest, accessible conversation about contraception — the options available to women, how they work, and the very real pros and cons that often aren’t fully explained.

Together, we explore:

• The different forms of contraception available today
• Hormonal and non-hormonal options, and how they may impact the body
• Common side effects, benefits, and trade-offs
• Why contraception can feel so different from one woman to the next
• How to make informed, body-led decisions that align with your values, health, and life stage
• 
  

This conversation is not about telling women what they should choose. It’s about understanding what’s available, asking better questions, and feeling empowered to make decisions that are right for your body.

As always, this episode is educational without being overwhelming, grounded without being clinical, and respectful of the complexity of women’s health. It holds space for curiosity, uncertainty, and choice — without shame, pressure, or one-size-fits-all answers.

Whether you’re starting contraception, reassessing your current method, coming off hormonal birth control, or simply wanting clearer information explained in a human way, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and support.
