The OCP Makes You Gay?

from Dr. Chapa’s OBGYN Clinical Pearls · host Dr. Chapa’s Clinical Pearls

The relationship between hormonal birth control and sexual orientation has been a topic on social media channels and threads; it is a discussion of controversy. It is essential to clarify that the hormonal birth control pill itself does not determine or change an individual's sexual orientation. While there is evidence to suggest that hormonal birth control can influence sexual desire and partner preferences, there is insufficient data to support the idea that it can change a person's sexual orientation. Sexual orientation is a complex interplay of biological, environmental, and social factors, and current scientific consensus does not support the idea that hormonal contraceptives influence one's sexual orientation. Where did this concept come from? Are there large-scale studies which address this? Listen in for details.
