In a research survey conducted in the United States in the year 2022, it has been observed that around 80% or over 3-quarter of reproductive age females reported that they would favor having the availability of OTC birth control pills without having a prescription for the same. Also, the presence of a large population is anticipated to propel market growth. Furthermore, the number of unintended pregnancies especially in the teenage group is anticipated to augment regional growth. As per the data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 14% of women aged 15-49 used contraceptive pills in the U.S. to prevent the risk of unwanted pregnancy during 2017-2018. In addition, the growth in Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) and rising government awareness programs to tackle the burgeoning population is anticipated to favor the sales of contraceptives in the region. Rising commercialization of contraceptives by major key players along with expanding disposable income of the population is expected to impetus the growth of the global contraceptives market in the North America region.
