It never endorsed Birth Control. Writings on it go back to the first centuries. The early Church would have followed the Jews on this issue as they too were against birth control.

Interestingly, all Protestant churches were also against it until the 1930s.

Catholic AnswerSince the first century, in other words, since the very beginning of the Church. This is one of the things that Christians were famous for, more than one ancient writer commented that they would "not expose their infants". An ancient document of the Church, which came out sometime after 50 A.D. called the Didache says:

.You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish

Pope Paul VI in his Encyclical, Humanae Vitae, reiterates the constant teaching of the Church that the sexual act between a husband and wife is for two purposes: to unit them as a loving married couple, and to beget children for God. Anything that frustrates either of those aims is a sin - and has been since the very beginning of the Church (i.e. 33 A.D.)
