Abby Epstein: Do Your Research and Do What Works For You

I am so thrilled to share my conversation with Abby Epstein, the director of the fascinating and evocative documentary The Business of Birth Control. Abby shares her own powerful and very personal story of self-discovery and change after taking hormonal contraceptives.


In this episode, Abby shares:

  • Why she was first put on the pill
  • The physical and mental health issues she experienced while on the pill
  • What she learned about herself when she came off hormonal contraception
  • The inspiration behind the documentary The Business of Birth Control
  • And the story of her first period


Abby says that it’s so important to do your own research and find a health solution that works for you.


Thank you, Abby!
