Hormonal Contraception: The Pill [General Discussion]
in Women's Health ·
Hey ladies! New girl here...
I'm 19 and looking to start on the pill. I was wondering what the damage looks like in terms of cost—like, if I were looking at Yassmin or Yaz, which ones are actually the most budget-friendly? Being a college student, my bank account is basically a joke right now. How many pills usually come in a pack for that price? Also, does insurance like Blue Cross cover any of this, or am I totally on my own? And how much does a prescription actually run me these days?
I’ve been scrolling through some of the other posts here and honestly... everything seems pretty complicated...
Sorry if I'm asking stuff that's already been covered a million times before...
Thanks!
