Oral contraceptives (birth control pills) are medications that prevent pregnancy. They are one of the methods of birth control. Oral contraceptives are hormonal preparations that may contain combinations of the hormones estrogen and progesterone or progesterone alone. Combinations of estrogen and progesterone act on LH & FSH which in turn prevent ovulation (the release of eggs from the ovaries).
