When you decide to start your love life you must also decide which birth control method is the right one for you. There are many options to choose from, but each of them has its own benefits and disadvantages, according to your age, marital status, parenting status and health state.
Before you dive into the wave and embrace the pill, you should analyse your love life and consider all your options by asking yourself some important questions. In the end, you will know which is the best birth control method for you.
How would an unplanned baby would affect my life?
This is the first thing you need to ask yourself when you pick a birth control method, because almost all methods have a percentage of failure. If you are a teen, a pregnancy may alter your future in an unpleasant way and abortion is not an easy operation. On the other hand, a mother who already has a child and a happy marriage, might not be so affected by a second child and may be happy to welcome him/her.
How effective are different types of birth control methods?
After you established how important it is for you to avoid a pregnancy, you can turn towards a type of products. IUDs and hormonal methods are the safest, followed by condoms, spermicides and diaphragms. The less effective birth control method is fertility awareness, also called the “calendar method”.
How can I prevent STI?
After the maternity concerns you also need to think about your own health, especially if you have multiple partners or you don’t trust your partner. In monogamous relationships many women prefer to skip the condom and rely solely on their partner, but the best prevention method against gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis and AIDS is to wear a condom each time you engage in sexy time, even if you have IUDs or pills to protect you from unwanted pregnancies.
After these three questions you should be able to decide on the best birth control method for you. However, there is one more question to ask yourself: do you want to conceive in the future?
This might sound strange, but for a mother of two-three kids, permanent birth control method is the best answer to all the problems, except the STIs.
But before you consider sterilization you must be completely sure you are taking the right decision for the rest of your life. If you still have doubts, don’t have the surgery or preserve some of your eggs, just in case you decide to enjoy maternity later on.
