Why IUD rates are so low + how betting companies kept Dylan addicted
When it comes to contraceptives, we aren't opting for methods like the IUD or implant in Australia anywhere near as much as people in other countries are.
The federal government's made IUD insertion cheaper and added the NuvaRing to the PBS — but what stops people from using alternatives to the pill?
Plus: after 12 years of addiction, Dylan is exposing the strategies betting companies used to keep him addicted to gambling.
He chats to Dave about how much he lost, and what is helping him to go more than 150 days without a bet.
Listen now:
01:10 - Australia's low rate of long-acting reversible contraceptives
14:40 - Overcoming a gambling addiction
Guests:
Dr Jacqueline Coombe, Sexual Health Unit, University of Melbourne
Dylan, anti-gambling advocate
