Men, have you ever found your girlfriend to be overly jealous for no reason? Well, turns out her choice of contraceptive may be to blame. A new study shows that sex hormones in the pill can have an effect on how much a woman trusts her mate. Dr. Craig Roberts of Scotland’s Stirling University questioned 275 women, ages 17 to 35, who had all been taking various versions of the Pill, attempting to gauge how much they trusted their partner. Those taking brands with higher doses of estrogen were more likely to be jealous. In fact, doctors warn that they could get so jealous it could put their relationships in jeopardy. The women tended to be more possessive and more likely to worry about their husband or boyfriend’s fidelity. So fellas, next time your lady questions where you’ve been, blame it on the contraceptive.
