Contraception Q & A
What is Contraception?
Contraception prevents pregnancy during intercourse. You may use contraception temporarily when you aren’t ready to start a family yet or you want to avoid pregnancy for a while after having a child. If you’re done having children, you may opt for permanent contraception.
What Types of Contraception are Available?
A variety of types of contraception are available. Some of the most popular options include:
- Oral birth control pills: Taken every day to stop ovulation and prevent pregnancy
- Injections: Hormonal injections that prevent pregnancy for several months at a time
- Implants: Usually placed in the arm, these offer long-term, reversible protection from pregnancy
- IUDs: A removable device placed in the uterus to prevent pregnancy for an extended period.
- Barrier contraceptives: Certain types of contraception, such as condoms and diaphragms, protect against pregnancy by creating a barrier between the sperm and the egg
- Sterilization: A permanent protection for women who don’t want any more children
