Choosing Contraception.Contraception is all about choice. Given that many different methods of contraception now exist in Australia, everyone should be able to find a suitable method. The type of contraception you choose depends on your personal circumstances - your age, your way of life, whether or not you have children, whether you have multiple partners, your health and the need to avoid unplanned pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Your choice should also take into account that only condoms offer dual protection against both STIs and unplanned pregnancies.
