10 BARRIER METHOD Prevents pregnancy blocks the egg and sperm from meeting Barrier methods have higher failure rates than hormonal methods due to design and human error

11 MALE CONDOM Perfect effectiveness rate = 97%
Typical effectiveness rate = 88% Latex and polyurethane condoms are available Combining condoms with spermicides raises effectiveness levels to 99%

12 MALE CONDOM Thin membrane made of latex, polyurethane or sheepskin that fits over the erect penis to catch semen when the male ejaculates. Condoms protect against some STI’s and unwanted pregnancy. Have a reservoir tip to collect semen at ejaculation

13 How to Use a Male Condom Check package for expiration date
Open package carefully (not with teeth!) Use a water based lubricate if needed Put condom on before you begin to have sexual intercourse-before penis touches other person Place the unrolled condom on the head of the erect penis. With one hand squeeze the air out of the tip of the condom, and with the other hand unroll the condom to the base of the penis After ejaculation, before the penis becomes limp, withdrawal the penis holding the rim of the condom to the base of the penis Dispose of used condom in trash, not toilet!

18 NuvaRing Flexible contraceptive vaginal ring that contains the hormones estrogen and progesterone. The ring releases a continuous low dose of hormones that stops the ovaries from releasing an egg each month.

19 NuvaRing Insert the ring in the vagina and leave it there for three weeks Remove the ring for one-week ring-free period, on the same day of the week at about the same time. During the one-week break, you will usually have your menstrual period.

20 Side effects Possible side effects are the same as birth control pills. They may include breast tenderness, headache, nausea, and spotting. Most side effects are not serious and often go away. Women who use hormonal contraception should not smoke

21 Ortho Evra (The Patch) Transdermal contraceptive patch that contains estrogen and progesterone The patch is thin, beige, flexible , two inch square that is worn on the body. The increased hormone level caused by the patch stops the ovaries from releasing an egg each month

24 What is it? Emergency contraception (EC) is a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse. It can be started up to five days (120 hours) after unprotected intercourse.

25 WITHDRAWAL Removal of penis from the vagina before ejaculation occurs
NOT a sufficient method of birth control by itself Effectiveness rate is 80% is not recommended for teens and sexually inexperienced men because it takes lots of experience before a man can be sure to know when he's going to ejaculate Very difficult for a male to ‘control’

26 How effective is it? Of every 100 women whose partners use withdrawal, 4 will become pregnant each year if they always do it correctly. Of every 100 women whose partners use withdrawal, 27 will become pregnant each year if they don't always do it correctly. Pregnancy is also possible if semen or pre-ejaculate is spilled on the vulva.
