Choosing a Pregnancy Prevention Method

One size does not fit all.
You and your partner can prevent pregnancy a lot of ways, including choosing not to have sex. There is no one birth control method that works for everyone. So just because one of your friends likes using condoms and another likes The Pill, it doesn’t mean that either are right for you…and that is just fine.

Finding the right method for you.
What is important is that you find the method that works best for you. Why? Because that increases the chance it will do its job and prevent an unplanned pregnancy.

If you aren’t confident about your personal choice of method — or your partner’s choice and cooperation:
you may be less likely to use it, increasing your pregnancy risk.

you may not enjoy sex as much as you could because maybe your fears and discomfort get in the way.

Remember, when you are choosing the pregnancy prevention method that works best for you it’s important to also think about STD/STI prevention. The only pregnancy prevention methods that can also reduce the risk of STD/STIs are: abstinence (choosing not to have sex) and insertive (often called “male”) and receptive (often called “female”) condoms.

So, if you plan to prevent pregnancy with The Pill…don’t forget to bring your condoms along!
