Contraception is safe for men and women

I recently had a consult with a lady who had pretty good reasons to be on reliable contraception, but she couldn't get her head round using any. Most of such uncertainties are based on inadequate information, or even from biased anecdotes.

The safety of female and male contraception is not in question. Not only does contraception prevent unwanted pregnancies, but there are also many other health benefits accrued from some contraceptive methods.

Reversible contraceptives have been around for ages. Oral contraceptive, commonly known as 'the pill', is fairly familiar to most women. All you need is to take a tablet daily, without fail, and you will be protected against an unplanned pregnancy. Once the pill is stopped, your potential to conceive returns immediately.
