Birth Control
Meet Melbourne OBGYN Doctor Hayes to discuss your birth control contraception options to assist you with your family planning.
Ask Dr. Hayes, an OBGYN, or your doctor to tell you about all of the risks and benefits of using birth control.
- No matter which Birth Control method you choose, it is important to follow all of the directions carefully. If you don’t, you raise your chance of getting pregnant.
- The best way to avoid pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is to practice total abstinence (do not have any sexual contact).
Some things to consider about birth control:
- Your health.
- How often you have sex.
- How many sexual partners you have.
- If you want to have children in the future.
- If you will need a prescription or if you can buy the method over-
the- counter.
The number of pregnancies expected per 100 women who use a method for one year. For comparison, about 85 out of 100 sexually active women who do not use any birth control can expect to become pregnant in a year.
Tell your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist if you:
- Smoke
- Have liver disease
- Have blood clots
- Have family members who have had blood clots
- Are taking any other medicines
- Are taking any herbal products, like St. Johns Wort
