    While most methods of birth control are highly effective when used correctly, there is always a chance that any method will fail. Weighing the options with a doctor and partner is an important part of the decision-making process.

    • Abstinence
    • Birth Control Sponge (Today Sponge)
    • Birth Control Patch
    • Birth Control Vaginal Ring (NuvaRing)
    • Birth Control Pills
    • Birth Control Shot (Depo-Provera)
    • Birth Control Implant (Implanon and Nexplanon)
    • Female Condom
    • Breastfeeding as Birth Control
    • Cervical Cap (FemCap)
    • Outercourse
    • Vasectomy
    • Diaphragm
    • Fertility Awareness-Based Methods (FAMs)
    • Pull Out Method (Withdrawal)
    • Morning-After Pill (Emergency Contraception)
    • Condom
    • Spermicide
    • Sterilization for Women (Tubal Sterilization)
    • IUD

    Some things to consider when choosing a birth control method are:

    • The individual's health status.
    • The desire for children in the future.
    • The frequency of sexual contact and number of sex partners.
    • Safety and efficacy of the chosen method.
    • Level of personal comfort with the chosen method.
