Birth Control

The best choice of birth control is what feels right for you and your partner.  It is important to consider what will prevent an unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections before you have sex. Abstinence or choosing not to have sex is always an option, even if you have had sex before. Before you have sex, take some time to decide if you are ready to have sex and talk to your partner about birth control.
