Contraceptive Method

Contraceptive methods are techniques used to prevent pregnancy during sexual intercourse. They can be hormonal (like birth control pills or patches), barrier-based (such as condoms or diaphragms), intrauterine devices (IUDs), or permanent solutions (like sterilization). Each method varies in effectiveness, side effects, and duration of use. Some also protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), like condoms. Choosing the right method depends on individual health, lifestyle, and family planning goals, so it’s often recommended to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
