Opill is a birth control pill formulated from norgestrel, which works to thicken the cervical mucus and prevent pregnancy.[1] Opill is manufactured by HRA Pharma and is the first ever over-the-counter contraceptive to be sold in the United States.[2] Opill is solely intended to be used for pregnancy prevention. It is not intended for use in emergency situations or for prevention of sexually transmitted diseases or infections.[3] Opill is marketed through social media and its partnership with the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA).[4]
