Global Emergency Contraceptive Pills Market to Reach US$ 814.3 Million by 2032, Propelled by the Development of Effective and Convenient Emergency Contraceptive Pills

September 29, 2023 | Healthcare

The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Emergency Contraceptive Pills Market Report by Type (Combination Pills, Progesterone Pills, and Others), Distribution Channel (Retail Stores, Online Stores, and Others), and Region 2024-2032,” finds that the global emergency contraceptive pills market size reached US$ 585.9 Million in 2023. Emergency contraceptive pills, or morning-after pills, are a form of birth control used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse or contraceptive failure. These pills contain hormones, typically levonorgestrel or ulipristal acetate, that work by inhibiting or delaying ovulation, fertilization, or implantation of the fertilized egg into the uterus lining. For instance, one common type of emergency contraceptive pill is the levonorgestrel-based pill, available over-the-counter in many countries. It should be taken after unprotected intercourse, ideally within 72 hours, although its effectiveness decreases with time. Another option is ulipristal acetate, available with a prescription and effective up to 120 hours after unprotected sex. They are meant for occasional use when other forms of contraception fail or are not used. Additionally, emergency contraceptive pills are generally safe and have side effects such as nausea, fatigue, or changes in menstrual cycles.


Global Emergency Contraceptive Pills Market Trends:

The market is primarily driven by the significant increase in awareness and education regarding emergency contraception. In addition, public health campaigns, educational programs, and easy access to information are essential in informing individuals about the availability and proper usage of emergency contraceptive pills, thus influencing market growth. Moreover, several advances in pharmaceutical research led to the development of more effective and convenient emergency contraceptive pills, which increased consumer confidence in the products and their reliability, representing another major growth-inducing factor. Besides this, the easy availability of emergency contraceptive pills over the counter and through healthcare providers removed many barriers that previously hindered individuals from obtaining timely emergency contraception, which is accelerating the market growth. Along with this, the changing societal attitudes toward emergency contraception reduced the stigma associated with its use, allowing more individuals to discuss and seek these products, propelling the market growth. Apart from this, the implementation of several regulatory changes in some countries made it easier to access emergency contraception without a prescription, thus augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the changing demographics, such as delayed family planning and a focus on career development, are escalating the demand for emergency contraception among women of reproductive age, thus creating a positive market outlook. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market value to reach US$ 814.3 Million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period (2024-2032).
