The Birth Control Movement emerged in the early 20th century, advocating for women's rights to access contraception and make informed choices about reproduction. Key figures, such as Margaret Sanger, played a crucial role in promoting birth control as a means to improve women's health and social status. The movement sought to challenge laws that restricted access to contraceptives and aimed to educate the public about family planning. Over the years, the movement led to significant legal and social changes, including the eventual legalization of contraceptives in many countries. Organizations like the Planned Parenthood Federation of America continue to support reproductive rights and provide access to birth control, emphasizing the importance of personal choice in family planning.
