 | Is there a particular form of birth control that you would recommend for me? | |
|
| Well, it depends on what you prefer and your lifestyle. A condom offers protection from pregnancy and STDs. They are not very expensive and come in many different forms. However, they do expire, can break, and can only be used once. You can also use the pill. These are very effective at preventing pregnancy if you use them correctly, but do not protect against STDs. Another form of hormonal contraception is the patch. You stick it on part of your body and it goes through your skin to prevent pregnancy. These dont prevent STDs though, either. There are many other forms; these are just a few examples. | |
