Negative perceptions about emergency contraception are likely to hamper the sales of “morning after” pills in the future. Despite the high accessibility of emergency contraceptive pills, followed by rising awareness of highly-effective birth control methods, incidences of unwanted or mistimed pregnancies persist. Moreover, high risk of morbidity and mortality associated with these pregnancies is disintegrating the fabric of urban cultures.
While unprotected sex continues to be a matter of mutual consent, obstetricians advise couples to opt for emergency contraception, particularly in healthcare settings with lack of accessibility to proper & safe abortion. Since unprotected sex also increases the risks of sexually transmitted infections, the ineffectiveness of emergency contraceptive pills in protection from venereal diseases continues to be a concern for manufacturers. Sales of emergency contraceptive pills are also being adversely impacted by unresolved side effects of emergency contraception – which include time constraint for intake, heavy vomiting, muscle spasms, and feeling nauseous.

During the forecast period, 2017-2022, the global emergency contraceptive pill market is anticipated to exhibit sluggish growth and reflect less than 3% CAGR.
Combination Pills showcase promising growth potential
The report segments the global market for emergency contraceptive pills on the basis of products, among which combination pills are expected to dominate the market revenues. In the foreseeable future, combination pills will witness relatively higher sales in the global market, primarily due to their health benefits in reducing risk of ectopic pregnancy. In 2017, nearly two-fifth of revenues procured in the global emergency contraceptive pills market will be contributed by global sales of combination pills.
On the contrary, use of estrogen pills for emergency contraception will lose traction. Over the forecast period, estrogen pills as a product in the global emergency contraceptive pills market will exhibit revenue growth at just 1.5% CAGR. Demand for progesterone pills is also expected to drop, particularly owing to their side effects which include joint pain, hot flashes, and diarrhea.
