Why do people take birth control even if they’re not sexually active? As a male, how can I better support my partner in contraception? How do I even start talking to my teen about contraception? Do I need to if I just teach them abstinence?   Today we’re talking about these questions and more. Its all about contraception how to implement it, understanding it, and teaching it to our teens.   Rebecca Simmons  is one of the presenters of the RMSS this event, they will be presenting on Novmeber 16 on contraception and how it affects our choices in sexual practices. Today’s episode is meant to give us a general understanding about contraception with men, how to talk to teens about contraception and laws that affect contraception.   This interview is brought to you by The Rocky Mountain Sex Summit. The 2019 Rocky Mountain Sex Summit will be doing a deep dive into reproductive sexual health.   Rebecca Simmons, PHD is a Research Assistant Professor at the University of Utah in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Simmons directs the evaluation for the statewide contraceptive initiative, Family Planning Elevated, and works on other implementation research. Her research interests and expertise include fertility awareness-based methods, comprehensive contraceptive access, health technology, and implementation science.   If you have any questions please feel free to leave a voicemail or text at 385-449-1818 or email me at   I will be on The Late Late Show with James Corden on November 18 to chug mustard to encourage parents to "mustard" the courage to talk to kids about sexual health. I'd love to have you join me!   Thank you again for listening. I appreciate you being a part of the hive.
