Contraceptive Methods (Pills)
Birth control pills are among the most common methods of contraception. These pills are available in two types: combined oral contraceptive pills and progestin-only pills. The choice of type depends on the doctor’s evaluation and the patient’s condition. The failure rate of pills in preventing pregnancy is very low, reaching 0.5%.
Section 02
Birth control pills have other benefits as well, as they are used to regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce some symptoms such as acne and hirsutism. Combined oral contraceptive pills are also considered protective factors against ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer.
