Abstract:
It is evident that choice of contraceptive has important medical implications, whether a mechanical or a hormonal method is elected. Each technology has unique benefits and risks, constraints, applicability, and inconvenience. Wise advice in a medical context must be based on thorough familiarity with the options available to each woman.
