Busting the Most Misleading Myths

1. Weight gain from birth control pills-

4. Women Need Less Sleep Than Men:

Women often require more sleep than men due to hormonal fluctuations, especially during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. Prioritizing rest is essential for the overall well-being of any individual.
