Available for over a year

Marked as a breakthrough in female contraception, the pill has been used for over six decades. More than a quarter of women say it remains their preferred form of contraception, followed closely by the male condom. However, more recently some young women on social media have been documenting their decisions to come off it. Dr Jane Dickson, a consultant in sexual and reproductive health care, joined Â鶹Éç Radio 4's Woman's Hour presenter Emma Barnett to discuss alongside Lottie Drynan, who stopped taking the pill just over a year ago after being on it for 13 years and has been documenting her journey on Instagram.
