Birth control, or contraception, offers a variety of ways to prevent pregnancy, using methods such as medication, devices, or minor procedures. Some options are temporary and easily reversible, while others are more permanent. Certain methods can also offer protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Our team is here to help you explore your options and find what feels right for you.
These methods use hormones to prevent ovulation (egg release) or thicken cervical mucus to block sperm. Examples include birth control pills, patches, rings, shots, implants, and intrauterine devices (IUDs).
These methods physically block sperm from reaching the egg. Examples include condoms, diaphragms, cervical caps, and sponges.
These chemicals kill sperm and can be used alone or with barrier methods.
These methods track your menstrual cycle to identify fertile and infertile days. Abstinence during fertile days can prevent pregnancy.
Also known as the "morning-after pill," this is a high-dose hormone medication used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex.
