ORAL

Oral contraceptives, commonly known as birth control pills, are a form of medication taken by women to prevent pregnancy. They contain hormones that suppress ovulation and thicken cervical mucus, making it harder for sperm to reach an egg. Oral contraceptives are a highly effective and convenient method of birth control when taken correctly. They also offer other benefits such as regulating menstrual cycles and reducing the risk of certain cancers and ovarian cysts. However, they may have side effects and are not suitable for everyone, so it is mandatory to consult with a gynacologist before starting oral contraceptives.
