A full 74% of surveyed women want over-the-counter oral contraceptives available without a prescription.  Most of those who answered no don’t use birth control pills now and don’t plan using them in the future.  This result stems from the latest Kaiser Family Foundation’s Women’s Health Survey of 5201 women.   By the way, both the American Medical Association and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists favor prescription-less oral contraception.  Women favor this availability for convenience, confidentiality, cost-saving, and speed.
