The contraceptive pill is a widely used method of contraception, taken by millions of women across Australia. There are several types of pill available, and what you use may depend on your preference or other medical considerations.

The contraceptive pill works by releasing synthetic hormones (progesterone and oestrogen) into the body to control ovulation and stop eggs from being fertilised.

The combined pill is taken daily, and is over 99% effective in preventing unwanted pregnancy. It releases synthetic hormones into the body and prevents ovulation (the release of an egg).
