What is Oral Contraception?
Oral contraception, or the birth control pill, is a daily medication to prevent pregnancy by regulating hormones, stopping ovulation, and blocking sperm. It also helps manage irregular periods, menstrual cramps, acne, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Our telehealth-guided assessments help tailor the best option for your needs.
