Birth Control Methods

The diaphragm is a round rubber dome that fits inside a woman's vagina and covers her cervix. It must be used with spermicide (a sperm-killing cream or jelly).

The IUD is a small, plastic device that is inserted by a physician / practitioner and left inside the uterus. Although there have been several types of IUDs, currently only two are available in the United States.

Combined oral contraceptives are commonly known as "the pill". They contain two man-made hormones called estrogen and progestin. The various brands of pills differ ONLY by the amount of estrogen in each pill and by the type and amounts of progestin.

Emergency contraception more commonly known as "the morning-after pill" is two large doses of hormones, similar to the ones in the birth control pill.

Depo-Provera is a progestin-only injectable form of birth control given by your health care provider every 3 months. It is injected into either your upper arm or buttocks.

Tubal ligation is a surgical form of sterilization. It is a permanent form of birth control. During the surgery, the fallopian tubes are blocked; this can be done by tying, sealing, or attaching a ring or clip to them.
