Types of Birth Control
- Hormonal Methods: These include options like birth control pills, implants, injections, vaginal rings, and patches. Hormonal contraceptives work by adjusting levels of estrogen and/or progestin to prevent pregnancy.
- Barrier Methods: Options include condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps. Condoms, in particular, are effective for protecting against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) as well as preventing pregnancy.
- Emergency Contraception: If regular birth control fails or after unprotected intercourse, emergency contraception can be used. Copper IUDs can be inserted up to five days afterward, and emergency contraceptive pills are also available.
- Natural Methods: This involves tracking your periods to determine when you are ovulating and then using barrier methods or abstaining on those days. This is also called Fertility Awareness Method.
- Permanent Methods: For those looking for a long-term solution, permanent options such as vasectomies and tubal ligations can be discussed.
Our healthcare team is here to help you choose the most effective and convenient method of birth control for your lifestyle.
