Contraception

There are 15 different methods of contraception. The type that works best for you will depend on your health and your circumstances.

There are several issues to consider when deciding which method of contraception is right for you. One you have read this information, go to your GP or local contraceptive (or family planning) clinic to discuss your choices.

And remember, the only way to protect yourself against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is to use a condom every time you have sex. Other methods of contraception prevent pregnancy but do not protect against STIs.
