    Dangerous in what way? According to the article:

    The panel cited the long history of safety and efficacy of Opill, which was approved for prescription use 50 years ago. The over-the-counter pill will be identical to the prescription version, which is 93 percent effective at preventing pregnancy with typical use.

        Melatonin is an oral hormone too, doesnt really mean its unsafe inherently, i think maybe its best to listen to the expert panel for now

          Obviously. Though I’m not particularly fond of US “experts”. If some respectable EU authority says it’s (mostly) safe, I’m gonna believe it’s (mostly) safe.
