Choosing a Birth Control Method

It can be a challenge to figure out which method of birth control is best for you, but your gynecologist can help. Be sure to mention any medical conditions you may have, as this can affect your birth control choices. Many women use birth control pills, of which there are many different options. Other women have trouble remembering to take a pill every day or cannot use the pill safely. These women might consider using birth control injections, birth control patches, or an intrauterine device (IUD).
