Our own ideas of morality had nothing to do with the case," said John Harvey of the Food and Drug Administration in 1960.

Alternatives to a birth control pill regimen include intrauterine devices (IUDs) such as the non-hormonal ParaGard or the hormonal Mirena, a weekly skin patch, a two-inch flexible ring that's inserted into the vagina, an injection, or even the implantation of a small device in a women's upper arm. The ring is inserted into the vagina and releases estrogen and progestin over a course of three weeks, says Wendy Smith, a registered nurse practitioner and owner of Full Circle Medical Clinic, which specializes in women's health.

Regardless, half a century after its approval, it is still a leading method of birth control, used by more than 100 million women around the world.
