Contraception - about

There are many different types of contraception now available. You may want to talk about your options with your partner, to see what you think will suit you both. Many couples will change their previous form of contraception after they have a baby. In some cases the contraception cannot be used while the woman is breastfeeding (for example 'The Pill') or because the woman has a medical condition. Discuss your options with your caregiver.

You can click on the following headings to find out about your different options for contraception.
