Today, more women than ever around the globe have access to contraception. That said, there's no doubt that more work is needed to make sure that women everywhere are given a full range of affordable options which allow them to take control of their own bodies.
While many women have very positive experiences of hormonal contraception it's just not the case for everyone. The contraceptive pill might stop women getting pregnant when they don't want to, but it comes with a long list of side effects among which are potential mental health problems.
