Is the Pill Harmful?
Is the popular birth control method hurting you—or your relationship?

Despite risks, the Pill is approaching its fiftieth year on the market. For millions of women—especially those who've experienced unwanted pregnancies in the past, are with men who refuse to use other forms of contraception or have conditions that benefit from staving off periods at all costs—the Pill and its sister hormone supplements are an inarguable choice. Luckily, whether women choose hormonal, non-hormonal, celibacy or other means to avoid becoming pregnant, the most important point is that we have a choice at all.
