Addressing Birth Control Misinformation
A Social Media Toolkit
As ob-gyns, you know that birth control is a powerful way to help ensure that your patients have control over their bodies, lives, and futures. You also know that whether it’s deterring people from exploring their options for contraception or giving lawmakers fuel to restrict access to birth control, misinformation is just as powerful, and just as dangerous.
You may be hearing from your patients about birth control misinformation that they’ve encountered on social media or online or even seeing it on your own social media feeds. To help you meet your patients where they are, ACOG has developed a social media tool kit that contains graphics addressing different birth control misinformation topics. Share these graphics on your own social media accounts to help your patients get the facts.
