Welcome

When choosing the best contraceptive for you and your partner,
there are a few things you should consider. Different methods suit
different people in different stages of life, so before making a
decision, it is a good idea to look at the different options and to find
out about their advantages and disadvantages. You will also need
to take into account your personal circumstances:

• How important is it for you to avoid pregnancy?
• Your age and health are important factors, as there are
  medical conditions and circumstances in which the use of
  certain methods of contraception is not allowed or advisable.
  Your doctor should have access to your medical history.
• Your relationship status needs to be taken into consideration.
  For example, are you in a committed relationship, or is your
  relationship open? How often do you have intercourse? Is
  your family completed, or do you still want to have children?
• Do you want a contraceptive method that is independent of
  your sexual activity or could you integrate a barrier or
  behavioural method within your sexual activity?
