As many young people either don’t want children or want to delay having children, birth control provides the ideal solution to preventing pregnancies.
62% of women who are of reproductive age use birth control to prevent pregnancy. Of that 62%, most opt for the birth control pill.
The birth control pill is a safe, simple, and convenient way to prevent pregnancy. It also has other benefits in addition to pregnancy prevention such as reducing acne, making periods lighter and more regular, and easing menstrual cramps.
Another advantage to the pill is that it’s birth control you don’t have to think about during sex. If you take the pill correctly, you’re protected from pregnancy all day, every day.
