Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Contraception
Contraception, or birth control, refers to methods used to prevent pregnancy. It includes hormonal, barrier, permanent, and natural methods.
- Hormonal Methods: Birth control pills, patches, injections, implants, and hormonal IUDs.
- Barrier Methods: Condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps.
- Long-acting Methods: Copper and hormonal IUDs.
- Permanent Methods: Tubal ligation (female sterilization) and vasectomy (male sterilization).
- Natural Methods: Fertility awareness and withdrawal (less effective).
Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) like IUDs and implants are the most effective, with over 99% success rates. Permanent methods are also highly effective but irreversible.
Some methods may cause side effects like weight changes, mood swings, irregular periods, or nausea. Barrier methods like condoms have minimal side effects and also protect against STIs.
Yes, fertility usually returns after stopping most contraceptives, but the time varies. Some women conceive immediately, while others may take a few months.
