What is the contraceptive pill?
The contraceptive pill is a little pill that girls usually take to inhibit the ovulation and normal fertilization. It contains normally a combination of two hormones: estrogen and progestin.

A hormone is a protein and a transporter of chemical message, produced by a gland or a tissue. This message transmits a signal by the blood from one or a group of cells to another one. It acts on organs or other tissues situated away from it. Hormones, with the nervous system, organise the activity of the billions of cells in the human body.

What are the two hormones that the pill contains and what is their role?
The pill is principally an association of two hormones estrogen and progestin. Estrogen is present in both women's and men's body, but at a higher level in women's body of reproductive age. It is a group of steroid compounds and the principal female sex hormone. There are three major naturally occuring types of estrogen, which are estradiol, estriol and estrone. Estrogens promote the development of female secondary sex characteristics, such as breasts, and are also involved in the regulation of the menstrual cycle. In males estrogen regulates the reproductive system important to the maturaion of sperm.
