Description
Summary:	With the help of the world's leading experts, this film investigates the future of birth control, debunking myths and looking at cutting-edge breakthroughs. Vicky, a journalist whose mental health has been affected by the pill, travels to Copenhagen to find out why women taking the pill are more likely to suffer depression. Cancer survivor Amy learns how the pill can actually protect women against some cancers. In the UK and USA, meet the scientists making advances in male contraception. And as more people look to digital technology for side-effect-free contraceptives, Horizon looks at the Swedish smartphone that – in a world first – has been certified as a contraceptive device.
