Free. Simple. Safe.
A thin cover worn on the penis during sex. Condoms are the only method that helps prevent both pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections.
Daily and discreet.
Take one pill daily, around the same time, for effective protection.
Long-term, low-maintenance. A small, T-shaped device placed in your uterus by a provider. Depending on the type, it can protect you for 3–10 years.
Set it and forget it (for a week).
Place a patch on your skin (anywhere but your breasts) once a week for three weeks. No patch the fourth week—your period arrives, then repeat.
Once every three months.
A quick injection from a provider that protects against pregnancy for 12 weeks at a time.
Reusable and non-hormonal. A soft, dome-shaped cup placed over the cervix before sex. Must be used with spermicide for protection. Requires a fitting by a provider.
Tiny but mighty.
A small, flexible rod placed under the skin of your arm by a provider. Offers protection for up to 3 years.
Monthly routine.
Inserted into the vagina once a month. Leave in place for three weeks, then remove it the fourth week for your period.
