Birth control pills make use of female hormones to prevent unwanted pregnancies. The way birth control works is by releasing a small amount of hormones daily. The hormones prevent the ovaries from producing eggs. Because these pills are based on hormones, the pills are also used to treat hormonal problems in some women.
