Birth Control
There are many different forms of birth control available in Canada. There is no way to determine which the 'best form' of birth control is because everyone is different. Physical attributes, lifestyle, and personality all contribute to whether a certain type of contraception will work for an individual. There are many things to be aware of and to consider when choosing a form of contraceptive, including:
- Personal and family health history
- Potential side effects and drug interactions
- Suitability with your lifestyle (for example, can you remember to take a pill everyday or are you willing to plan ahead to use a diaphragm?)
- Cost
- Availability
