The number of contraceptive options available to women has increased dramatically in the past few years. With the rising popularity of subscription boxes and online marketplaces, users can now access a wide range of birth control methods and devices without having to leave the comfort of their homes.
While there is no wrong answer when it comes to family planning, each woman needs to ask herself what would make her happiest and healthiest as a spouse and parent. In the interest of helping you make the right decision for your unique situation, let’s explore the various methods of birth control and what makes them special.
Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCPs)
It is, in fact, illegal for businesses to sell oral contraceptives to anyone under 18 years of age. Despite this legislation, it is still very common for teenagers to purchase oral contraceptives from friends or family members. While this may seem like a no-brainer, it is a decision that you and your parents need to consider carefully before making. The benefits of OCPs include effective birth control that is also extremely convenient to use.
For many women, OCPs are a great choice as they are both easy to use and have a high rate of effectiveness. They are also a reliable option, with no fear of missing pills due to unexpected pregnancy. If you are looking for an equally easy and effective option for birth control, then OCPs are a great choice for you.
The Nuva Ring
The Nuva ring is a type of implantable birth control device that was first approved by the FDA in 2012. It is a flexible plastic tube that is inserted into the upper arm and allows for the easy injection of hormones. The Nuva ring is an excellent choice for those women who want to avoid the side effects of oral contraceptives or who want an even more reliable form of birth control. Just like the pill, the Nuva ring is also highly effective.
The only difference is that it will not break down or dissipate in the body like the pill. This makes it much easier to maintain high levels of the hormones inside you, benefiting your health and that of your offspring. If this sounds like something that could be a possibility for you or someone you know, then the Nuva ring is a great choice as it is both effective and safe.
The IUD (Intrauterine Device)
The IUD is another implantable birth control device that is gaining popularity. It is a small T-shaped device that is either held in place by a harness or held in place wirelessly. The IUD is inserted into the cervix and can either be removed or left in place permanently. It is a popular choice among women who want to have their baby, but don’t necessarily want to rely on a pill to prevent pregnancy. If you are looking for an easy and effective way to prevent pregnancy, then the IUD is a great option for you.
The IUD has several advantages. It is highly effective, having a success rate of 99%. It can also be effective for those who want to avoid pregnancy for a longer period of time. Many women who use IUDs describe them as being ‘lifesavers’ as it is extremely convenient to use and requires little to no monitoring by a physician. If this is something that interests you or someone you know, then the IUD is a great choice as it is both reliable and safe. However, like other implantable birth control devices, there is a risk of infections if not used properly. The IUD needs to be inserted by a trained medical professional and needs to be removed and replaced if it becomes damaged or misplaced. Make sure to read the user guide that came with your device to familiarize yourself with its proper use.
The Patch
The patch is, in some ways, the simpler and more convenient option compared to the other birth control methods mentioned so far. It is also, in some ways, the opposite. The patch is a small adhesive disk that can be worn on the abdomen. This area of the body is known as the contraceptive diaphragm region and, as the name would suggest, this region prevents conception by impeding the passage of sperm from the male to the female reproductive system. It is a popular choice among women who want an easy and effective way to prevent pregnancy and are either unable or unwilling to use a more traditional method.
The patch can be both safe and reliable. It has a success rate of approximately 94% and has been around for more than 70 years. It is a common misconception that the patch causes miscarriages. While it has been known to cause this in rare cases, it is usually the case that it prevents them. If this is something that interests you or someone you know, then the patch is a great option as it is both easy and effective. A word of caution, make sure to follow the instructions that came with the product. If you are using the patch, then it is highly recommended that you remove it before eating or drinking anything as this could cause you to become ill or make you more vulnerable to infections. This is particularly important if you are using the patch during the winter months or after engaging in any type of athletic activity.
The Sponge
The sponge is, in some ways, the opposite of the patch. It is a tampon-like product that is designed to remain in place for a longer period of time – up to several hours. It is a very popular choice among women who want or need to use hormonal birth control as it helps the body to absorb and metabolize the hormones more effectively. This type of birth control is usually given to women who have an uneven vaginal seeding as it promotes even and sustained distribution of the hormones inside you. If this is something that interests you or someone you know, then the sponge is a great option as it is both reliable and effective.
However, just like the other methods discussed, there is a risk of infections if not used properly. Make sure to clean the sponge after use and insert it into a sealed plastic bag if you are going to keep it for longer than 30 minutes as this could cause you to become ill or infected. If this is the route you want to go, then the Sponge is a great option as it is both effective and safe.
Sterilization
If none of the other methods discussed so far interest you or someone you know, then you may be interested in trying sterilization. This is a permanent form of birth control and the most popular choice among women who want to prevent pregnancy. It has several advantages. It is highly reliable as it requires neither frequent use nor specific instructions on how to use it properly. It is also an easy option to keep up with as there is no need to remember to take a pill or insert a device periodically. This, in turn, makes it more convenient for those who want or need to use it regularly. Sterilization is also a great option for women who want to have their baby and then return to their pre-pregnancy size as this method prevents excessive weight gain during pregnancy. Just make sure to consult with your doctor before making this decision as there are different types of sterilizations available and the one you choose will depend on your personal situation.
Sterilization is a permanent choice and, as a result, many women who use it do not feel as though they face the usual concerns that come with the use of other, more temporary methods of birth control. It is, in fact, the most popular choice among women aged 45 and older. It is a popular choice among women who want to prevent pregnancy and need reliable, long-term birth control options. If this is something that interests you or someone you know, then sterilization is a great option as it is both effective and safe.
