Oral contraceptives - what does this mean
Oral contraceptives are birth control pills that contain hormones that prevent ovulation and thus pregnancy. when taken as directed, these hormones prevent the release of an egg from the ovaries, thicken cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and thin the lining of the uterus to prevent implantation of a fertilized egg.
What happens during the disease - oral contraceptives
Oral contraceptives work by preventing ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovary. the hormones in the pill, usually a combination of estrogen and progestin, also thicken the mucus in the cervix, which makes it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus and fertilize an egg. by preventing ovulation and making it difficult for sperm to reach the egg, oral contraceptives are an effective method of contraception.
