Combined oral contraceptive pill
""The Pill"" redirects here. For other meanings, see Pill (disambiguation). This article is about daily use of COC. For occasional use, see Emergency contraception.Combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP), often referred to as the birth control pill or colloquially as ""the pill"", is a birth control method that includes a combination of an estrogen (estradiol) and a progestogen (progestin). When taken by mouth every day, these pills inhibit female fertility. They were first approved for contraceptive use in the United States in 1960, and are a very popular form of birth control. They are currently used by more than 100 million women worldwide and by almost 12 million women in the United States. Use varies widely by country, age, education, and marital status. One third of women aged 16–49 in the United Kingdom currently use either the combined pill or a progestogen-only ""minipill"",compared to only 1% of women in Japan.The Pill was a catalyst for the sexual revolution. World historians credit the Pill as the most important contraceptive to transfer power about reproductive rights from men to women.
