This is a letter to the BMJ stressing the importance for clinicians of how women, who are choosing contraception, may be influenced by how they imagine their own bodies, and the effects of contraception upon them. It references the paper Mechanistic and “Natural” Body Metaphors and Their Effects on Attitudes to Hormonal Contraception (http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/03630242.2012.728190).
