Summary:
- This article discusses a study conducted by researchers at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) on the use of new prescription-free oral contraceptives.
- The study found that most people who bought the new over-the-counter contraceptives had previously been using less effective or no contraception at all.
- This suggests that making contraceptives more accessible and affordable can help increase the use of effective birth control methods, which can have important public health implications.
