Birth control pill divides opinion after 35 years

The piece notes high usage among women under 45 about 10 million, access issues for poor women, concerns about side effects and misuse, and the pill’s impact on family planning and sexuality amid rising teen pregnancies. It also quotes critics who link the pill to moral decline while recognizing its sobering effect on women's career and family choices.
