Barrier Methods:
Condoms: One of the most well-known and easily accessible methods, condoms provide a physical barrier to prevent sperm from reaching the egg. They also help reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Diaphragms and Cervical Caps:
These are inserted into the vagina to cover the cervix, blocking sperm from reaching the uterus.

Hormonal Methods:
Birth Control Pills: These are oral contraceptives containing hormones that prevent ovulation. They need to be taken daily.

Birth Control Patch: A patch worn on the skin that releases hormones to prevent pregnancy. It's changed weekly.

Vaginal Ring: A small, flexible ring inserted into the vagina that releases hormones. It's left in place for three weeks.

Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives (LARCs):
Intrauterine Devices (IUDs): T-shaped devices inserted into the uterus that can provide contraception for several years, depending on the type.

Implants: Small rods inserted under the skin that release hormones to prevent pregnancy for several years.
