Contraception is used to prevent unplanned pregnancy.
There are many forms of contraception, but no method is ever 100% effective. Not all contraceptive methods work the same way and most have benefits and some downsides. That’s why it’s important to consider all the types available and pick one that best suits you and your partner’s health and lifestyle needs.
Your GP or Family Planning NSW clinic will be able to assist you in accessing contraception.
