Join the Celebration and Say Thanks, Birth Control

For more than a decade, Thanks, Birth Control Day has been a reminder of what’s possible when everyone has the power to decide their own futures. On November 12th, 2025, people across the country will take to social media to express their gratitude for birth control for everything it makes possible.

This year, the campaign feels more urgent than ever. Access to reproductive health care has been decimated in parts of the country, and mis/disinformation about birth control is spreading faster than facts. At a time when fear and false claims dominate online spaces, celebrating the truth about birth control is a powerful act of resistance.

Let’s talk about why and how our communities can get involved in #ThxBirthControl Day on Wednesday, November 12th: 

Storytelling matters now more than ever.

The stories we share about birth control can challenge stigma, inspire connection, and remind policymakers and the public why access matters. At a time when reproductive health information is being skewed online, personal stories are a vital antidote to misinformation. Sharing real stories on social media using #ThxBirthControl or uplifting Bedsider’s resources helps cut through the noise, grounding the conversation in lived experiences and trusted facts.

Celebrating birth control is celebrating freedom.  

Birth control isn’t just about preventing pregnancy; it’s about giving people the power to decide their own path. Whether it’s finishing school, building a career, managing a health condition, or planning a family, birth control helps people build the lives they envision for themselves. #ThxBirthControl is more than a slogan. It’s a reminder that birth control is popular, widely used, and makes so much possible. 

A toolkit to help you join the conversation.

To make it easy to take part in this year’s #ThxBirthControl campaign, we’ve created a Social Media Toolkit filled with ready-to-use resources. In it you’ll find:

• Shareable social media graphics and GIFs.
• Sample posts and messaging to help you speak confidently.
• Facts and data about birth control access and use.

Whether you’re an advocate, a health care provider, or someone who simply wants to share the love for birth control, we have everything you need to add your voice to the conversation. On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, let’s meet the moment and remind people of the importance of birth control by saying Thanks, Birth Control. Together, we can flood timelines with facts, positivity, and the real impact that access to birth control has on all of us.
