Birth Control
Birth control, or contraception, is any method or device used to prevent pregnancy. Women can choose from many dif ferent types of birth control. Some work better than others at preventing pregnancy. The type of birth control you use depends on your health, your desire to have children now or in the future, and your need to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs, also called STDs). -
