What are Some Different Forms of Birth Control?
No method of birth control, save abstinence is 100% effective against preventing pregnancy. All birth control methods are prone to human error, and each method may fail even if used properly. Birth control methods come in many different types. These are barrier methods, hormonal methods, intrauterine devices (IUDs), natural methods, permanent sterilization, and post sexual activity birth control. All of these methods have merits, and all have risks. Only barrier methods like male and female condoms reduce risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
