Modern Birth Control Methods ,[object Object],[object Object]

Barrier Methods ,[object Object],[object Object]

1. Male Condoms ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The male condom is a sheath that is placed over the penis to prevent ejaculated semen from entering the vagina.

2. Diaphragms ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Diaphragms are placed along the back wall of the vagina prior to intercourse. It creates an obstacle for sperm trying to enter the uterus.

3. Cervical Caps ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The cervical cap functions similarly to the diaphragm. It attaches to the neck of the uterus via suction. This essentially covers the opening in the cervix.

4. Female Condoms ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The female condom has two ends. The closed end has a flexible ring that is fixed in the vagina, while the open end remains partly outside the vagina. It functions much like its male counterpart.

Hormonal Methods ,[object Object],[object Object]

1. Oral “Contraceptives” ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ The Pill” and “The Mini-Pill” use the hormones estrogen and progesterone to mimic pregnancy - thus preventing ovulation.

2. Implants ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Norplant, a set of tiny rods, is implanted in a woman’s arm by a surgical procedure. Depo-Provera is an injection . Both release the same hormones as “The Pill” for the same overall effect.

Spermicidal Methods ,[object Object],[object Object]

1. Foams, Creams, and Jellies ,[object Object],Contraceptive foam is a light mixture of spermicide and air, which is inserted into the vagina with an applicator. Spermicidal creams and jellies are identical to foam except in texture.

2. Contraceptive Sponge ,[object Object],[object Object],The contraceptive sponge, which looks similar to a diaphragm, is a synthetic sponge coated with spermicide.

Intrauterine Devices (IUDs) ,[object Object],[object Object],Intrauterine devices, or IUDs, are small T-shaped devices inserted into a woman’s uterus by a physician.
