Deep dives
The effect of birth control on attraction
Research shows that when women take hormonal birth control, their preference for cues related to masculinity and testosterone decreases. Women on birth control tend to have a preference for less masculinized male faces. This can have implications for their attraction and relationship satisfaction when they discontinue the pill. Women may become less attracted to their partner if they were initially chosen while on birth control. However, the effect of birth control on attraction varies depending on individual factors and partner attractiveness.
