==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
[[Contraception]] or [[birth control]] is the prevention of unwanted [[pregnancy]] intentionally by using one of many different methods including devices, [[Sexual practice|sexual practices,]] [[chemicals]], drugs or [[surgical]] procedures. [[Contraception]] methods can also be used for other purposes such as prevention of [[sexual transmitted infection]], treatment of different conditions as [[acne]], [[polycystic ovary syndrome]], [[endometriosis]], [[amenorrhea]], [[dysmenorrhea]], [[premenstrual syndrome]], [[primary ovarian insufficiency]], and heavy [[menstrual periods]]. | [[Contraception]] or [[birth control]] is mainly used for the prevention of unwanted [[pregnancy]] intentionally by using one of many different methods including devices, [[Sexual practice|sexual practices,]] [[chemicals]], drugs or [[surgical]] procedures. [[Contraception]] methods can also be used for other purposes such as prevention of [[Sexually transmitted disease|sexual transmitted infection]], treatment of different conditions such as [[acne]], [[polycystic ovary syndrome]], [[endometriosis]], [[amenorrhea]], [[dysmenorrhea]], [[premenstrual syndrome]], [[Ovarian insufficiency|primary ovarian insufficiency]], and heavy [[menstrual periods]]. Health care providers should consider the important elements when choosing the most appropriate contraceptive method for women, men, or couples such as safety, effectiveness, availability (including accessibility and affordability), and acceptability. CDC has created recommendations and categories for the use of birth control based on the element of safety. | ||

Overview
Contraception or birth control is mainly used for the prevention of unwanted pregnancy intentionally by using one of many different methods including devices, sexual practices, chemicals, drugs or surgical procedures. Contraception methods can also be used for other purposes such as prevention of sexual transmitted infection, treatment of different conditions such as acne, polycystic ovary syndrome, endometriosis, amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, premenstrual syndrome, primary ovarian insufficiency, and heavy menstrual periods. Health care providers should consider the important elements when choosing the most appropriate contraceptive method for women, men, or couples such as safety, effectiveness, availability (including accessibility and affordability), and acceptability. CDC has created recommendations and categories for the use of birth control based on the element of safety.
Birth Control Options
Female birth control options
Long-acting reversible contraception (LARC): is 99% effective, has a high rate of satisfaction, long-term use, quick return to fertility when discontinued and includes the following:[1]
- Intrauterine device (IUDs) (> 99% effective)[2]
- Copper IUD: Effective for up to 10 years, used for patients with light menstrual periods, patients who desire long-term contraception without using hormonal contraception
- Progestin-releasing IUD: Effective for up to 5 years, used for patients with heavy menstrual bleeding and dysmenorrhea
- Subdermal implant (> 99% effective): Effective for up to 3 years[3]
Injectable contraception[4]
- Depot-Medroxyprogesterone: (94% effective), IM injection is given every 3 months
Combined hormonal contraceptives[5]
- Oral contraceptive (estrogen/progestin pills) (OCPs) (91% effective)
- Contraceptive patch (91% effective)
- Vaginal Ring (91% effective)
Barrier and chemical methods[6][7]
- Female Condom
- Diaphragm
- Cervical Cap
- Sponge
- Spermicide (80% failure rate if used alone). Should be used with cervical cap or diaphragm, may damage the genital epithelium and increase risk of acquiring SDIs[8]
Traditional options/Natural contraception[9]
- Fertility awareness[10]
- Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM) (Breastfeeding can help with child spacing)[11]
- Abstinence or withdrawal
- Rhythm Method
Surgical options
- Permanent Sterilization (Tubectomy/tubal ligation)[12][13]
Male birth control options
Male contraception includes the following:[15]
- Condoms (80% effective), the only type of contraception that prevent sexually transmitted infections[16]
Male Sterilization
Coitus Interruptus or Withdrawal (75% effective)[19]
- Testosterone in combination with other hormones under research and development[21]
- Testosterone enanthate: intramuscular short-acting testosterone formulations suppresses sperm concentration to very low levels[22]
- Long-acting intramuscular testosterone undecanoate[23]
Hormonal contraceptive injectable regimes using testosterone combined with other molecules
- Testosterone plus progestin[24]
- Testosterone plus Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) antagonists[25]
- Hormonal contraceptive transdermal regimes using testosterone and Nestorone: gel-gel combination[26][27]

Dos
- Increase the levothyroxine dose in patients with hypothyroidism who started taking OCPs. Oral contraceptives (estrogen) alter the transport and tissue delivery of thyroid hormone by increasing the synthesis of throxine-binding globulin which can lead to a relative hypothyroid state in patients with hypothyroidism.
- Consider increasing the dose of warfarin when the patient uses OCPs
- Give two forms of contraceptives and take monthly pregnancy tests for sexually active women who use Isotretinoin for acne
- Give non-oral form of contraception (IUD, implant) for one year to patients who underwent bariatric surgery to achieve weight loss goals and stabilize nutritional status
- You can use IUD in a nulliparous female who has no contraindications
Don'ts
- Don't give CHC to a patient of age ≥ 35 who smokes ≥15 cigarettes per day
- Don't give CHC for a patient with history of Migraine headache with aura or focal neurological symptoms
