For instance, according to the UN World Fertility and Family Planning 2022, in 2021, 1.9 billion women of reproductive age received some form of contraception to avoid pregnancy with 77% of women among them using modern contraceptive methods including implants, patches, IUDs, and others.

As per the Seeing the Unseen report: The case for action in the neglected crisis of unintended pregnancy, more than 60% of unwanted pregnancies result in abortion and the projected 45% among them are unsafe. Hence, to avoid unsafe abortions, countries are spreading awareness about contraceptives, which is expected to propel industry growth.
Due to the highly competitive nature of the market, companies are making significant investments in research and development. They are also adopting various strategies such as mergers and acquisitions and expanding their product pipelines. For instance, in February 2022, Organon Group of Companies acquired rights of Mercilon and Marvelon, combined oral hormonal daily contraceptive pills from Bayer AG in the People’s Republic of China, including Macau and Hong Kong.
