Knowing your options can help you select the right one for yourself and avoid unwanted pregnancy. The major types of birth control methods are barrier methods (condoms, diaphragms etc), intrauterine devices (IUDs), and birth control pills and shots. Natural family planning methods may also work for some couples. Those who don't want any more (or any) children can go for sterilization.
