Oral Contraceptive Pills Market: Snapshot
Oral contraceptive pills are a form of orally delivered contraceptive medication that, when administered daily, helps in preventing unwanted pregnancies. These pills are also known as ‘birth control pills. Products in the oral contraceptive pills market are available in two types, categorized by the type of hormones they deliver. The first one is a progestin-only pill, while the second is a combination pill that consists of two hormones, namely estrogen, and progestin. The hormones in oral contraceptive pills change the natural functioning of the human body to prevent pregnancy. The hormones, estrogen, and progestin, when administered daily, prevent the ovary from releasing the egg for fertilization. These pills need to be administered daily and can stop working even if one or two doses are missed. Another type of hormonal pill in the oral contraceptive pills market is the emergency contraceptive, also known as the EC pill or Plan B pill in the United States. These pills are also administered orally but only work in stopping pregnancy if administered 72 hours after an unprotected sexual encounter. Rising awareness regarding the safety and security offered by-products in the oral contraceptive pills market is expected to boost sales in the industry in the coming years.
A growing number of working female professionals is also a motivating factor for the growing global market for oral contraceptive pills. Control over one’s reproductive system can ensure job security and provide independence for working and living their life. Some factors influencing the global market are stringent government regulations regarding access to clinical and safe abortions and dominant pro-life movements in various countries in the world. Many religious beliefs and cultural communities in the world believe contraception to be a sin or a harmful choice. These factors can continue restricting the growth of the global market by a certain degree in the coming years. Players and manufacturers of the oral contraceptive pills industry are constantly engaged in clinical trials and studies to develop newer, more potent, and safe-to-use drugs and medications. Increased investments in research and development activities by various government and non-government organizations are also expected to positively affect the global oral contraceptive pills market in the coming years.
