Birth Control Methods

Mirena

Effectiveness: 99%

Lasts: Up to 8 Years

Mirena is an estrogen-free intrauterine contraceptive (IUC) that delivers small amounts of hormone directly to the uterus. It is also FDA-approved to treat heavy periods for up to 5 years in women who choose an IUD for birth control. Can be used whether or not you’ve had a baby.

Nexplanon Implant

Effectiveness: 99%

Lasts: Up to 5 Years

The birth control implant Nexplanon (an older version is called Implanon) is inserted by a doctor into the patient’s arm. This tiny device – about the size of a matchstick – releases the hormone progestin into the women’s system to stop her from getting pregnant.

Birth Control Pills

Effectiveness: 91%

Lasts: Must Take Daily

The hormones in birth control pills stop a woman from ovulating, so pregnancy can’t happen. These hormones also thicken the mucus in the cervix to block sperm so it can’t swim to an egg. Birth control pills can also help with managing PMS and difficult or heavy periods.

Birth Control Shot

Effectiveness: 94%

Lasts: 3 Months

The Depo-Provera Shot is an injection women get once every 3 months. Sometimes called the Depo shot, it contains the hormone progestin which prevents a woman from getting pregnant by preventing ovulation, as well as thickening mucus that can block sperm.

NuvaRing

Effectiveness: 91%

Lasts: Replace Monthly

The NuvaRing is a hormone-releasing ring worn inside the vagina, where the vaginal lining absorbs the estrogen and progestin that is released. It works by stopping sperm from meeting the egg and fertilizing it.

Birth Control Patch

Effectiveness: 91%

Lasts: Replace Patch Weekly

“The Patch” is worn on the skin on the belly, upper arm, buttocks, or back. It releases hormones that prevent pregnancy. A new patch is worn every week for 3 weeks – with a week off in between.

IUD

Effectiveness: 99%

Lasts: Up to 10 Years

An IUD or “Intrauterine Device” is a tiny, plastic T-shaped device that’s placed inside the uterus to prevent pregnancy. It lasts many years, is reversible, and is one of the most effective methods of birth control.
