World Contraception day was on 22nd March. Many women in US is concerned on access to birth control contraception pills. Scientists have found feasible way to address the issue. They have found trivial change which would bring drastic change in unwanted pregnancy in USA.
Most of the health coverage in USA allow 3 months supply of contraceptive pills. Supply for more than 3 months won't be included in health coverage insurance plan. A study published on Obstetrics & Gynecology demonstrated that prescription of birth control pill for more than 3 months would significantly bring consistency in women to continue their birth control plan.
A research study conducted at New York family planning clinic proved that women are more likely to continue to take birth control pills if they are given long lasting supply of contraceptive pills. The research included 661 women of different ages. All the women were given option to go for 3 months supply or 7 months supply. 51% of women who opted 7 months supply had continued the pills after 6 months. And only 35% women of 3 months supply continued. This is not startling fact, in fact it is common sense. However, statistical data that back the claim is necessary to bring changes in insurance policy.
The reason of 3 months supply limit is that a pregnant women take visit to physician and that physician can know any sort of developing complications or side effects of the pill. However, the limit is seem to be problem as women stop taking pills when they run out of the pills.
