Your gynecology specialist will be able to help you decide which form of birth control is best for you based on a number of different factors including your current relationships, age, desire to have children in the future, and lifestyle considerations. Some of the most popular forms of contraception include oral medication, hormonal patches, intrauterine devices, and prophylactics such as latex condoms. Some of these methods protect against sexually transmitted disease, while others are only able to prevent pregnancy, which can be an important factor for many women who are deciding which method is best for them. Dr. Beyerlein offer exceptional insight and support, so you can choose a form of contraception that is exactly right for your unique needs.
