"Debate Over Availability and Pricing of Over-the-Counter Birth Control in the US"

The U.S. will soon offer over-the-counter birth control pills, sparking mixed reactions. Opill, priced at $20 for a one-month supply, is 98% effective and uses only progestin. Advocates argue for increased access to hormonal contraceptives, while critics express concerns about self-medication and the need for comprehensive women's healthcare. The availability of over-the-counter birth control coincides with discussions around women's fertility, including access to the abortion pill.
