There are many ways Birth Control prevents pregnancy, but it usually stops the ovulation that way there's nothing for the sperm to fertilize so the woman won't get pregnant . Hope I helped :)

Birth control pills contain two female sex hormones- estrogen and progestin. They work together to prevent ovulation (releasing of eggs from the ovaries).
