History of contraception and Birth Control

Have you ever tried to read the history of contraception & birth control? 
The world has a long history!
4k (4000) yr ago it was saved as a documentation in Egyptian papyrus, the prescription of contraception, when most probably no modern medical science existed.
The oldest history of our ancestors started .
Then things progressed.
 Then the world has gone through a lot of search,trail & error.
Nothing comes in one day actually 🙂
Dr. CONDUM was the 1st physician who invented the condom & recommended it to King Charles 2(1660-85)
In the 11th century IUD came via an Arabic scientist.
 He followed an observation on camel & applied it on humans .
Then in 1912 for the " Magic pill" movement at New York one nurse got imprisonment. Birth control was not a law or legal advice then. So she faced it unfortunately. Her name is Margaret last Sanger.
Then came the book " Married Love " in 1918 in England by Dr. Marie Stopes to fire the movement of contraception & birth control.
1929 estrogen isolated first by Doisy & 1938 ethinyl estradiol was synthesized in 1938.
In 1941 the concept of progesterone came from a wild Mexican plant by Russel Market , the 1st historical kickstart on hormonal birth control.
1951 By Djessary & pincus the 1st artificially synthetic progesterone came & it's use of confirmed.
In 1954 ,1st successful human trials were done.
In,1956 "medical fertility control is possible" the milestone got a verified stamp .
In 1959 ,USA approved the medication officially.
POP released in 1971 
From illegal, prison to legal &mandatory law .
Till then so far....
So now officially it's 2025 nov 26
BE THANKFUL TO YOUR ANCESTORS BCZ WITHOUT THEM THINGS CAN'T BE SO EASY !
