This category of contraceptivesIt has an effect on the internal genital organs of women. Hormones, once in the body, begin to stop the maturation of the follicles, suspend the process of ovulation and create a barrier to sperm from reaching its destination. Performing such functions, the pills against pregnancy reduce to almost zero the likelihood of sperm reaching the egg.
