Oral contraceptive pills: Advances and progress over the last 50 years
Expert Reviews Ltd, Sep 2011, Pages: 106
It has been 50 years since the first oral contraceptive pills were approved for public use in Great Britain, and to mark this milestone, this Special Focus Issue of the peer-reviewed journal Expert Revew of Obstetrics & Gynecology focuses on the advances and progress that have been made in this field of research. A number of experts in the field discuss the current situation in hormonal contraception, including an overview of currently available pills, our present knowledge of risks and side effects, as well as of the benefits – both contraceptive and noncontraceptive – that oral contraceptive pills can offer. On the social front, women’s expectations when opting for hormonal contraception – and how these changed over time – is summarized; in addition, patterns of use and the somewhat controversial topic of over-the-counter distribution is also debated.
