2. Beberapa hal yang digunakan untuk membantu mengontrol reproduksi

 Barrier methods. Examples include male and female condoms, as well as the
diaphragm, cervical cap and contraceptive sponge.

 Short-acting hormonal methods. Examples include birth control pills, as well as the
vaginal ring (NuvaRing), skin patch (Xulane) and contraceptive injection (Depo-
Provera). These are considered short-acting methods because you have to remember to
use them on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

 Long-acting hormonal methods. Examples include the copper IUD (ParaGard), the
hormonal IUD (Mirena, Skyla, Kyleena, others) and the contraceptive implant
(Nexplanon). These are considered long-acting methods because they last for three to 10
years after insertion — depending on the device — or until you decide to have the device
removed.

 Sterilization. This is a permanent method of birth control. Examples include tubal

ligation for women and vasectomy for men.

 Spermicide or vaginal gel. These are nonhormonal options for birth control. Spermicide
is a type of contraceptive that kills sperm or stops it from moving. Vaginal pH regulator
gel (Phexxi) stops sperm from moving, so they can't get to an egg to fertilize it. You put
these products in the vagina right before sex.

 Fertility awareness methods. These methods focus on knowing which days of the
month you are able to get pregnant (fertile), often based on basal body temperature and
cervical mucus. To avoid getting pregnant, you do not have sex on or around the days
you are fertile, or you use a barrier method of birth control.
