    GlossaryOral Contraceptives (the pill)

    medications taken orally to prevent pregnancy

    Oral contraceptives, commonly known as "the pill," are medications taken by mouth to prevent pregnancy. They typically contain synthetic forms of the hormones estrogen and progestin, which work by inhibiting ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and altering the uterine lining to prevent implantation.
