Contraception

There are different ways to have sexual intercourse without risking a pregnancy.

​

Contraception for people with a uterus can be:

 

- Hormonal : pill, patch, implant, ring, injection, hormonal intrauterine device (IUD)...

- Non-hormonal : copper intrauterine device (IUD), internal or external condom, diaphragm, cervical cap, tubal ligation, sympto-thermal method (note : simply calculating or using an app is NOT a reliable method!)...

- Emergency : emergency pill (up to5 days after intercourse, free in planning familial centers), copper intrauterine device (IUD) (to be inserted within 5 days of intercourse, requires a medical appointment)

​

Contraception for people with testicles can be :

​

- Non-hormonal: external condom (free at all family planning centers!) vasectomy, thermal (ring, briefs, jockstrap...) Withdrawal or coitus interruptus is NOT a reliable method 

 

- Hormonal : injectable solution
