    Study Notes

    Contraceptive Methods

    Hormonal Methods

    • Combined Oral Contraceptives (COCs): contain estrogen and progestin, preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus
    • Progestin-Only Pills (POPs): contain only progestin, thickening cervical mucus and preventing ovulation
    • Contraceptive Patch: releases estrogen and progestin through the skin, preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus
    • Contraceptive Ring: releases estrogen and progestin into the vagina, preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus
    • Injectable Contraceptives: contain progestin, thickening cervical mucus and preventing ovulation

    Barrier Methods

    • Male Condoms: prevent sperm from reaching the egg
    • Female Condoms: prevent sperm from reaching the egg
    • Diaphragm: covers the cervix, preventing sperm from reaching the egg
    • Cervical Cap: covers the cervix, preventing sperm from reaching the egg
    • Spermicides: kill sperm, preventing fertilization

    Intrauterine Devices (IUDs)

    • Copper IUDs: release copper, preventing sperm from reaching the egg
    • Hormonal IUDs: release progestin, thickening cervical mucus and preventing ovulation

    Sterilization

    • Vasectomy: surgical procedure, cutting or blocking the vas deferens in males
    • Tubal Ligation: surgical procedure, closing or blocking the fallopian tubes in females

    Natural Methods

    • Rhythm Method: avoiding intercourse during fertile days
    • Basal Body Temperature (BBT) Method: tracking body temperature to determine fertile days
    • Cervical Mucus Method: tracking cervical mucus to determine fertile days
    • Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM): breastfeeding, suppressing ovulation

    Emergency Contraception

    • Morning-After Pills: high-dose hormonal pills, preventing ovulation and fertilization
    • Copper IUDs: can be used as emergency contraception, preventing implantation
