💡 Remember, you have the right to make informed choices about your sexual and reproductive health, including whether or not to have children, how to space pregnancies, and how to prevent unintended pregnancies.

☔ Contraception can be used for both pregnancy prevention and planning, allowing individuals and couples to decide when and if they want to have children.

Most people can use contraceptive methods safely, regardless of age or marital status.

👩🏽‍⚕️ If you have any health issues, a healthcare provider can help you choose the safest and most suitable option.

Emergency contraception, such as the copper IUD and emergency contraception pill, can be used immediately after unprotected in*******se. Make sure to seek a pharmacy or healthcare provider as soon as possible within 72 hours.

Highly effective contraceptive methods include:

➡️ Implants
➡️ IUDs

🛡️ Condoms (male and female) are the ONLY contraceptive methods that provide protection against both pregnancy and STIs/HIV. Using condoms correctly and consistently along with other methods enhances protection and peace of mind.

Choosing the right contraceptive method depends on your health, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Explore your options and speak to a healthcare provider to find the best fit for you.
