ASMR makes learning about birth control surprisingly relaxing

If birth control content on social makes you feel overwhelmed (or if you’ve been putting off learning about your options because it all seems kind of chaotic and loaded with misinformation), we’ve got you covered. We’re excited to share that the chillest way possible to explore your birth control options just dropped.

TikTok creator @julieta.asmr made a series of calming videos all about birth control, in which she role plays as the most comforting doctor you’ve ever met. The videos are quiet, intentional, and gently walk through the basics using sample methods. It’s a chance to dip your toe into the topic of birth control without being hit with a tsunami of myths, horror stories, and sketchy science.

If you’ve never seen ASMR before, think whispery voices, soft lighting, and maybe a little bit of tapping on things with long fingernails. Watching ASMR videos can help you calm down, relax, and tune out the rest of the world. With Julieta’s videos, the vibe is part bedtime story and part health class, and somehow…it just works.

If you’ve been meaning to look into your birth control options and this approach sounds interesting to you, you can watch the full series on Julieta’s TikTok, or just check out a few of our faves:
