Contraceptive Therapy (Jadelle, Mirena, Copper T)

It’s important for sexually active people to be aware of the different types of contraception available. Contraception has two primary roles. It prevents unwanted pregnancies as well as the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Some people – for instance, those in monogamous (one partner) relationships – might use contraception simply as a means of birth control, while individuals who have more than one sexual partner will also be concerned about getting an STI. Since not all types of contraception prevent STIs, and some forms of birth control are more reliable than others, you need to evaluate which method is best for you and your partner.

Different Types of Contraception

Contraception falls into four main categories, each with its own advantages:

  • barrier methods
  • hormonal methods
  • natural birth control
  • sterilization
