Choosing the right method involves considering various factors such as:
1. Effectiveness: Some methods are more effective than others. LARCs, for example, have a higher success rate than condoms. 2. Side Effects: Different methods have different side effects. Hormonal methods may cause weight gain, mood changes, or menstrual irregularities. 3. Convenience: Consider how easy it is to use the method. Daily pills require more discipline than an IUD, which can last several years. 4. Protection Against STIs: Only barrier methods like condoms offer protection against STIs. 5. Personal Preferences and Lifestyle: Some methods may better align with the individual's lifestyle and preferences.
